In S.A. Cosby's latest thriller, “King of Ashes,” a successful and fast-living financial adviser is called suddenly back to the small Virginia hometown he fled, where his family runs the local crematory and his father is in a coma stemming from a car crash that may not be as accidental as it seems.Cosby himself is from a small Virginia town, and on this week's podcast he discusses the allure of homecoming, the tricky emotional terrain of complicated families and the reason he keeps revisiting the rural South in his fiction.“Once manufacturing moved out of these places, these rural places, there was nothing left to replace it. But crime — crime is America's great secret industry. It's our great secret empire. And when the legitimate businesses leave, crime steps in the fold. Nature abhors a vacuum, so crime steps in to fill that place. And I wanted to talk about cities like that."

Join Opie for a lively morning stream from 500 feet above New York City, where spring is in the air but so is the pesky pollen driving him nuts. In this episode, Opie rants about the city's miserable vibe, shares a hilarious tale of a realtor hyping up a house with celebrity neighbors like Al Pacino, and dives into nostalgic stories from his radio days, including meeting Sam Kinison in a Cosby sweater and a lucky snapshot with Bill Clinton. From NBA playoff excitement to the struggles of urban life and a chaotic moment at Gebhards, Opie keeps it real, raw, and unfiltered. Tune in for laughs, gripes, and a dose of Opie’s signature charm!
