Send us Fan MailWhat if getting better isn't about seeing the target differently—but seeing yourself more clearly? In Part 2, Wendell Cherry, David Radulovich and Jason continue their deep dive into self-awareness, exploring how shooters learn, adapt, and recognize what their minds and bodies are actually doing. Wendell also reflects on how years of coaching have changed the way he teaches—and what his students have taught him about his own game.

Welcome back, my fellow creatives!Yup, I'm back to looking at the first five pages of various stories, for those five pages can make or break the engagement of a reader--or an agent. So, let's scope out others' stories to see how they hook an audience!Now, this one I stumbled upon while trying to find something a little different from my previous selections. Ironically, I picked The Franchise because it reminds me of something I have read before. But I'll explain in a second."Game of Thrones meets The Truman Show in this epic tale of a Hollywood-owned fantasy world where nothing is quite as it seems to the people who live and die at the studio's whim."This blurb immediately made me think of Diana Wynne Jones' The Dark Lord of Derkholm, which is about a planet that's being used as a tourism site where people pay to come and be on the stereotypical fantasy quest. So, Elrod's giving us another fantasy realm being controlled by others for nefarious reasons. I'll take it!I admit, I got caught up in the first chapter even though the chapter's not on the fantasy world or dealing with Hollywood. Rather, it's in October of 1962 in the midst of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Wendell, who publishes a scifi/fantasy magazine, is contemplating the assured end of the world when a peculiar French-sounding man arrives with a massive manuscript he hopes will be published.At first, I was bummed we had no allusions to Hollywood, dimensional travel, magic, etc. Nope. Just two guys talking about an unsolicited manuscript. Where's the excitment in that?Yet there's this tug with all that talk about the end of the world that makes one wonder...could this certainty about the end of the world motivate how others choose to control that fantasy world promised in the novel's premise? There is a mystery, too, with this Frenchman who insists he's from Boston and has no money to get home. At the beginning of the meeting, Wendell is quite ready to chuck the Frenchman and go back to putting his affairs in order, but by the end of the interaction, he imagines an amazing media empire, all because of this book, this unknown book by this unknown man. Wendell hasn't looked at a single word, yet is ready to give a large sum and a publishing contract.Quite the turnaround there, without any reason other than feared doomsday.Unless, of course, something else is going on....So yes, I got surprisingly caught up in this little interaction between two characters who may very well not appear in the novel ever again. No flash or whizz-bang spectacle--just a vivid interaction with the undercurrent that something is not quite right.And when the writing's strong and the premise promising, that's all one needs for a solid first chapter. If you're looking for a different avenue into a fantasy realm, something a little dark and weird and odd like The Franchise sounds like a pretty good fit.And what will we discover in the next story's five pages?We'll have to wait and see. xxxxRead on, share on, and write on, my friends!

Sept 24, 2009 Wendell Berry is one of America's most recognized “men of letters” as well as one of the early ‘pioneer' farmers of organic, sustainable agriculture in our modern age. What Wendell wrote about 40 years ago,[1960]  ignored as a Luddite at the time, is now the norm among the environmental opponents of big agriculture & the food industry. Wendell has written over 50 books and tomes including novels & novellas, stories, non-fiction works, poems & essays. After teaching English at New York Univ. in the early 60s, he moved to a farm- Lane's Landing- in rural Kentucky, while periodically teaching at the Univ. of Kentucky. Since then his farm has served as a base to commune with the land, master the art of farming with the purity of food in mind, and to be inspired by our relationship to the soil, to food, wildlife & nature, and experience the importance of a nurturing community. “Bringing It To The Table: On Farming and Food”

What happens when we receive God's mercy but struggle to extend that same mercy to others? The story of Jonah shows how easily disappointment and bitterness can keep us stuck in our own perspective. But the mercy of God meets us in the belly of the whale and invites us to lay down our bitterness and become the embodiment of the mercy of God to others.

If you've heard us talk about Recovery Weeks, or you've been thinking about joining us, you might be wondering: What exactly happens during those six days? Recovery Week is a focused, immersive experience designed to help survivors explore the ways their stories of past sexual abuse have shaped their lives. In this episode, Dr. Dan Allender is joined by longtime Recovery Week facilitators Wendell Moss, LMHC, and Sue Cunningham, MA, MS, LPC, to offer you a glimpse into the experience. They describe what to expect, particularly in the Story Groups. The work invites us to consider the difference between conviction and condemnation, and what it might mean to receive the truth of our stories without contempt.  They also explore some of the surprises of Recovery Week: the laughter that emerges alongside grief, the friendships and camaraderie that grow, and the relief of discovering that you are not alone. Together, they discuss how compassionate witness can loosen the grip of shame and create space to encounter God as one who sees, grieves, and cares. Listen in for a glimpse of what to expect, and why this experience can be both more difficult and more joyful than many participants anticipate. To learn more about Recovery Weeks with the Allender Center, please visit: https://theallendercenter.org/workshops  This episode is centered around recovery from sexual abuse.

Playwright and critic Bonnie Greer was a frequent panellist on programmes such as Newsnight and Question Time where she took part in one of its most contentious episodes. Kirsty spoke to Judith Antell who was Bonnie's agent and friend for over 20 years. They discuss how Bonnie's father being stationed in the UK during World War 2 shaped her view on the country; the surprising backlash Bonnie faced after appearing on a 2009 edition of Question Time with the then leader of the British National Party, they also discuss the project Bonnie was most proud of in her later career. Jeremy Thomas was a film producer whose 80 plus films ranged from the Oscar Award-winning The Last Emperor to the hugely controversial 'Crash'. He also produced wartime drama Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, the gangster thriller Sexy Beast and the adaptation of William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch. Mark Cousins wrote and directed “The Storms of Jeremy Thomas” which documented his eclectic career. He tells Kirsty how through his films Jeremy "wanted to dig deeper into human life, his films are about the biggest questions". (Please note: In the introduction to this item we incorrectly stated that Mark was the producer of 'The Storms of Jeremy Thomas'. Mark was the writer and director.)

As a writer, he published hundreds of essays, poems and more than forty books. Wendell argued for most of his life that small-scale agriculture was essential to the preservation of the land and culture. Writer Paul Kingsnorth has been reading Wendell's work since the 90s and recently worked with him to compile a series of his essays into a book. He discusses Wendell's philosophy to farming, the environment, the wider community and how they are all intrinsically linked together. Wendell famously never owned a computer and only wrote with a pencil, which presented challenges, and unexpected joys, for Paul when editing the book. Frances Stonor Saunders was a historian who exposed secret CIA attempts to manipulate public opinion through popular culture during the cold war. Her 1999 book 'Who Paid the Piper' was hugely successful and groundbreaking in its work. It was said that it "single-handedly established a new branch of sub-history" and is to be republished in 2026. Frances' brother Alexander Stonor Saunders explains how she was able to uncover the range of CIA activities, they included the production of an animated version of George Orwell's Animal Farm.Presenter: Kirsty Lang Producer: Ed Prendeville Assistant Producer: Ribika Moktan Researcher: Jesse EdwardsARCHIVE: Conversation Piece, BBC Radio 4, 01/12/1988; Start the Week, BBC Radio 4, 28/06/1999; The Food Programme, BBC Radio 4, 25/08/2002; Fast Food Nation, BBC Film Network, 03/05/2007; Question Time, BBC One, 22/10/2009; Front Row, BBC Radio 4, 09/12/2010; Belief, BBC Radio 4, 31/12/2010; GMT, BBC News / World News, 21/11/2011; The Film Programme, BBC Radio 4, 16/10/2014; My Food Hero: Ella McSweeney Meets Wendell Berry, BBC Radio 4, 24/08/2015; Front Row, BBC Radio 4, 29/07/2024; Era of Reclamation (Ep. 1: In Search of Black History), British Museum

Thinking about Wendell Berry's Lessons for Schools When Andy Catlett, Wendell Berry's character, a nine-year-old boy, visits his grandparents in 1943 over a Christmas vacation, he narrates the everyday happenings of a three-day journey. In one scene, he describes his Grandma's button box. According to Andy, everyone had button boxes in every home he visited in those days — an assortment of glass, brass, or pearl buttons in different shapes and colors collected over the years from worn or discarded garments. These could be used to adorn new handmade clothes or to replace the lost buttons on other shirts or dresses. For Andy Catlett, playing in these boxes was like searching for hidden treasure. On this particular visit, however, Andy realized he no longer liked playing with buttons. In one sense, he was surprised at the realization. On the other hand, it was an acknowledgment that growing up means losing interest in some things and finding it in others. At the same time, Andy was realizing his interests were shifting to more adventuresome objects like rifles or mule teams. Even as he thought of this moment from childhood, the grief in his voice is evident as he says, “Maybe it was because I was now traveling away from home…by myself, but I knew suddenly and finally that my time of playing with buttons was past, just as one summer evening a year or two later, when I had found a perfect slingshot fork in the top of a tree, it came to me that I was no longer interested in slingshots, and I climbed down and left the perfect fork uncut” (Berry 457). In addition to Andy's realization that button boxes and slingshots had lost their interest for him, he also realizes that small farming practices are going out of style as well, and this sad reality brings more serious consequences for entire communities. In fact, it is this loss that shows up most as one of the major themes for most of Wendell Berry's characters. Almost all of Berry's books contain themes that run up against the losses of treasures we so easily discard in the name of progress or modernization. From his nonfiction work, The Unsettling of America, to his poems of protest against practices like strip-mining, Berry's works create a masterpiece of classics that help us relate to the everyday lives of his characters while yearning to redeem or repair the damage being done to their places and lives. Some of these losses, Berry acknowledges, are a natural part of living. Others, however, he shows, have been thrust upon us by outside forces bent on taking rather than giving. In his novel about Hannah Coulter, the grandmotherly narrator is able to show her patriotism while also pointedly convincing you of her hatred of war and violence. Jayber Crow, the town barber, in the book he narrates, helps readers grieve the loss of forests and natural field boundaries that protect farms from erosion and land devastation. As a Kentucky farmer, Berry lived near the very Kentucky River he describes in his fictional town of Port William. He also practiced what he preached. The Berry Foundation, established by his family, has helped small farmers reclaim more than 2,000 acres of Kentucky farmland to reestablish regenerative farming practices that are not dependent on industrialized farming methods. What do Wendell Berry's stories have to do with school leadership? Growing a community of learners can very easily be compared to the growth of a healthy garden or farm. Both require healthy soil as the culture for healthy growth. Both require a commitment to long-term investment of careful husbandry versus quick fixes or trendy applications. Both require an investment in the people involved in the work as much as the work itself. As I've said in other posts, strong schools (or any community, for that matter) require commitments to three areas: strong shared beliefs, committed people of strong character, and sustainable, effective systems. Strong beliefs include the shared values that every child can learn and include an unbending commitment to doing whatever it takes to hold them to high expectations while providing high supports. Committed people have the hearts, not just the heads, for good teaching and learning. Character is more important than competency, and competency goes much further when carried by people with character. And without strong, sustainable systems or structures in place, you cannot achieve outcomes. You can attract good people with the right beliefs, and you can have the right collective outcomes in mind, but if the structures are weak, many of those same people will grow frustrated in the work and likely go somewhere else. It is the responsibility of leaders to set the tone for beliefs, to invest in supporting people, and to create the structures for sustainable outcomes. This school year, you will be venturing into the hard work of growing a healthy learning environment. Wendell Berry's books remind me of the wonders and joys of being a child. They also remind me to honor the legacies of brave everyday men and women who are often our best examples of human flourishing. He calls his readers to think deeply about our relationships not just to people but also to places. He inspires us to improve or redeem the places and times we live in now, not just yearn for the past or look to the future. Wendell Berry's ability to take simple, everyday occurrences and turn them into moments of reflection is a gift that keeps giving over and over again in his books and poems. These sentiments may be best captured in one of his most famous poems, “The Peace of Wild Things,” where he says: When despair for the world grows in meand I wake in the night at the least soundin fear of what my life and my children's lives might be,I go and lie down where the wood drakerests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.I come into the peace of wild thingswho do not tax their lives with forethoughtof grief. I come into the presence of still water.And I feel above me the day-blind starswaiting with their light. For a timeI rest in the grace of the world, and am free. From The Selected Poems of Wendell Berry (Counterpoint, 1999) Now It's Your Turn This school year, what commitments can you make to the beliefs, people, and systems that produce healthy learning outcomes? How can you stay timely in your understanding of your students and your practices while also holding to the timeless principles that have always made learning possible and will keep on working long after we're gone?

No Man Is an Island No man is an island,Entire of itself;Every man is a piece of the continent,A part of the main.Any man's death diminishes me,Because I am involved in mankind.And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;It tolls for thee.–John Donne (1571–1631), English poet and priest

Historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez, author of the best-selling "Jesus and John Wayne," is back with another look at the forces that shaped modern American evangelicalism. This time she explores the backstory of evangelical femininity in her new book, "Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made." Also this week: Phil wants to know what links three recent celebrity deaths—Dolly Parton, Gloria Steinem, and Wendell Berry. To the surprise of many, The Christian Post has published an anti-Christian nationalist article. Is it a sign that the evangelical support for MAGA is finally turning?

Joining Clancy and Wendell in the studio today is an icon of Sydney, and a driving force behind the revitalisation of the city's nighttime economy. Nahji Chu, better known as Lady Chu, has been at the forefront of hospitality for more than a decade, with her Kings Cross Restaurant one of the most popular on the strip. From humble beginnings as a Vietnamese immigrant to opening the iconic MissChu takeaway that revolutionised food delivery, Nahji has been doing things her own way even when it rubs up against the archaic laws of councils and governments. She talks us through her journey, the obstacles she bashes through, plus the friends and enemies she's made along the way. We also dive into some of her greatest Google reviews, which rival some of the best comedy writers in the country.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Love alone is credible; nothing else can be believed, and nothing else ought to be believed." –Hans Urs von Balthasar

What if everything really comes down to love? What if the only thing we are meant to do is to love, then love again, then love some more? Can it actually be that simple? (Albeit, not necessarily easy!) We aren't meant to love in the precise way that Dolly or Wendell loved, and it isn't ours to have the same size or scope or shape of impact of such public giants. But perhaps we could muster the boldness of the Psalmist and exhort God to show us the way(s) that we are meant to love, then love again, then love some more. Scripture: Psalm 119: 33-40Resources:Romans 13.8-14 — excerpt: “Don't be in debt to anyone, except for the obligation to love each other. Whoever loves another person has fulfilled the Law. The commandments…are all summed up in one word: You must love your neighbor as yourself. Love doesn't do anything wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is what fulfills the Law.”Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, and article “How Dolly Parton helped the world - from children's books to supporting Covid vaccine,” by Tiffany Wertheimer, BBC, August 26, 2026.Wendell Berry, and a couple of his most well known and beloved poems: “The Peace of Wild Things” (audio recording of Berry reading his own poem), and “Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front” (featuring, among other wise and beautiful nuggets, the prophetic imperative to “Plant sequoias.” Which our friend Rachael Weasley turned into this beautiful song.)image: photos of Wendell and Dolly in their younger years!

In the late spring of 1212, a spontaneous mass movement of 30,000 children arose in medieval France. Led by a 12-year-old shepherd boy named Stephen from the small village of Cloyes, the “Children's Crusade” swore to march on the Holy Land and peacefully reclaim the city of Jerusalem from Muslim control. In this first episode of a two-part series, we examine the origins of the Children's Crusade, the historiographical controversy surrounding it, and the enigmatic figure at its center, Stephen of Cloyes.    SOURCES: Asbridge, Thomas. The Crusades: The Authoritative History of the War for the Holy Land.

In this episode, Coach Blu and Coach Wendell discuss how addiction often reveals itself through patterns such as secrecy, defensiveness, isolation, broken promises, emotional reactivity, and continued substance use or compulsive behavior despite negative consequences. They explore the importance of looking beyond a single incident and recognizing how these behaviors affect relationships, responsibilities, health, and personal values. The conversation also highlights self-awareness as a foundation for recovery, learning to identify emotions, triggers, cravings, and the unmet needs beneath addictive behavior.They also examine how honest, respectful communication can reduce defensiveness and strengthen trust. By expressing feelings clearly, listening without judgment, accepting responsibility, and making specific requests, individuals can address conflict more effectively. Blu and Wendell emphasize that vulnerability is not weakness; it is the willingness to acknowledge fear, shame, uncertainty, and the need for support while still taking responsibility for personal choices. Ultimately, recovery involves replacing avoidance with honesty, developing healthier coping strategies, and consistently choosing actions that align with the person one wants to become.Chapters00:00 Introduction and episode overview01:52 Signs of behavioral addiction and secrecy04:54 The role of device privacy and reactions to questions10:03 Communication strategies and vulnerability14:47 Understanding triggers and internal shifts19:48 Concealment, betrayal, and shame24:51 The cycle of addiction and relapse autopsy29:55 Healing through curiosity and self-awareness40:12 The importance of community and support50:09 Finding awe and joy in recovery55:08 Conclusion and resources for recoveryJoin Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

Before social media algorithms knew everything about you, the internet was a simpler place. A lawless, dial-up wasteland where your email address was probably something like BongRipper69@hotmail.com and one accidental click on Rotten.com could permanently alter the trajectory of your childhood.So naturally, The Rizzuto Show is going back.This episode starts with more nostalgia for the early internet and one of its most infamous destinations: Rotten.com. Back then, you couldn't just stumble across every horrifying thing imaginable while casually scrolling your phone. No, sir. You had to work for your trauma. You had to hear about Rotten.com from somebody, type it into the family computer, click something you absolutely shouldn't have clicked, and then wait patiently while your dial-up connection loaded your lifelong regret one horrifying line at a time.Was Rotten.com disgusting? Absolutely.Does the crew still seem weirdly sad that it's gone?Also absolutely.Then we move from internet trauma to another relic of the '90s and early 2000s: Hotmail.A poll says 18% of people are apparently still rocking a Hotmail address, which leads to an important discovery: Hotmail never completely disappeared. Microsoft eventually transitioned the service into Outlook, meaning technically some of us may still be living inside the Hotmail universe.We're all dorks. Fantastic.The crew remembers the era when nobody used their actual name for an email address. Instead, we created identities that looked like rejected Xbox gamertags: random nicknames, 420s, 69s and enough questionable innuendo to make applying for a respectable adult job years later slightly complicated.And then there are the complaint emails.Apparently nothing tells the show exactly what demographic they're dealing with faster than receiving an angry message from an account created during the Clinton administration.Welcome to daily comedy, where your email provider is now apparently enough information for us to profile you.But nostalgia eventually gives way to competition as Match Up With Moon returns with Rafe versus Moon, and that's when everybody's remaining intelligence begins leaking out of the studio.Round one starts innocently enough.What's Beantown?Boston. Easy.Which amendment gave women the right to vote?The 19th. Look at us go.Who was Wendell the cereal mascot?Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Somehow we still know this information despite forgetting why we walked into rooms.Then comes the question that starts breaking brains:What does the “com” in .com actually stand for?Rafe goes with “communication.” King Scott thinks “company.” Moon correctly lands on commercial, because apparently after decades of typing web addresses, one person in the room finally bothered to understand what any of it means.The trivia chaos continues with questions about Heineken, the 2006 St. Louis Cardinals and one of the most important cereal discoveries of our time: Cap'n Crunch apparently has an actual name.Horatio Crunch.Good for Horatio. Glad somebody finally gave the Captain the respect he deserves.Round two somehow gets worse.Which country contains more than half of the world's natural lakes? What's the only internal human organ capable of regenerating itself? Who originally hosted America's Got Talent? Which fast-food chain helped introduce Tater Tots?And then Rizz makes Moon and Rafe physically write down how many zeros are in a quadrillion.Moon arrives at 15.Rafe ALSO WRITES DOWN 15 ZEROS……and then says 16 out loud.That is the kind of unforced error this daily comedy show was built upon.Nothing quite compares to successfully solving a problem and then personally changing your own correct answer into the wrong one.The crew wraps things up by guessing attendance at the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series race at Worldwide Technology Raceway. Moon guesses 39,000. Rafe throws out 80,000.

In this episode of Agents of Recovery, Coach Blu and Coach Wendell explore how self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and curiosity support recovery and personal growth. They discuss the importance of examining our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and patterns without turning self-reflection into shame. By becoming more aware of what is happening internally, individuals can pause before reacting, understand their triggers, communicate more honestly, and make choices that align with their values.The conversation also highlights the power of vulnerability and small victories. Recovery is built through everyday actions such as asking for help, telling the truth, setting boundaries, repairing relationships, and choosing healthy responses during difficult moments. Coach Blu and Wendell encourage listeners to replace judgment with curiosity by asking, “What can I learn from this?” Through honest reflection, emotional growth, and recognition of steady progress, people can create meaningful and lasting transformation.Chapters00:00 Introduction and personal updates01:24 The importance of self-examination and vulnerability04:15 The role of curiosity in understanding life and oneself07:03 Finding joy and awe in everyday activities11:44 The power of honest self-inventory and curiosity15:23 The strength of saying 'I don't know'20:52 Feeling emotions to heal and grow24:55 Thinking in layers and understanding triggers30:39 Creating personalized recovery plans37:18 The importance of small victories and celebrating progress45:19 The value of emotional awareness and vulnerability52:34 Living with awe, wonder, and purposeJoin Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

ThrasherNeil YoungThey were hiding behind hay balesThey were planting in the full moonThey had given all they had for something newBut the light of day was on themThey could see the thrashers comingAnd the water shone like diamonds in the dewAnd I was just getting up, hit the road before it's lightTrying to catch an hour on the sunWhen I saw those thrashers rolling byLooking more than two lanes wideI was feelin' like my day had just begunWhere the eagle glides, descendingThere's an ancient river bendingThrough the timeless gorge of changesWhere sleeplessness awaitsI searched out my companionsWho were lost in crystal canyonsWhen the aimless blade of scienceSlashed the pearly gatesIt was then that I knew I'd had enoughBurned my credit card for fuelHeaded out to where the pavement turns to sandWith a one way ticket to the land of truthAnd my suitcase in my handHow I lost my friends, I still don't understandThey had the best selectionThey were poisoned with protectionThere was nothing that they neededNothing left to findThey were lost in rock formationsOr became park bench mutationsOn the sidewalks and in the stationsThey were waiting, waitingSo I got bored and left them thereThey were just dead weight to meBetter down the road without that loadBrings back the time when I was eight or nineI was watchin' my mama's TVIt was that great Grand Canyon rescue episodeWhere the vulture glides, descendingOn an asphalt highway bendingThrough libraries and museums, galaxies and starsDown the windy halls of friendshipTo the rose clipped by the bullwhipThe motel of lost companionsWaits with heated pool and barBut me I'm not stopping thereGot my own row left to hoeJust another line in the field of timeWhen the thrasher comes, I'll be stuck in the sunLike the dinosaurs in shrinesBut I'll know the time has comeTo give what's mine

Country music is in the air in Detroit Lakes this week. One of the nation's largest country music festivals starts Wednesday at Soo Pass Ranch just outside town. Big names like Lainey Wilson and Brooks & Dunn will take WE Fest's three stages to play for tens of thousands of fans. The lineup includes a couple local artists, like Zach Thomas, who's from the western Minnesota town of Wendell and now lives in Fargo. He joined MPR News guest host Kelly Gordon to talk about his upcoming gig, why he writes sad songs and what it's like to witness the explosion of pop country's popularity as an independent artist.

I'm A SongStephen Wilson Jr.I'm the showman in San AntonioMiddle of the rodeoDaddy's hand that you used to holdWhen you'd walk back to the carI'm the sound of the county fairFerris wheel kisses high up in the airA sip of brandy when your soul is bareAnd you need to share your heartI'm the words that'll hit youThat'll get you where you're goingSo you never go there aloneI'm the melody glued to the memoryThat you can't shake when it comes onI'm the part of you that you listen toRiding in the radio all night longI'm a songI'm a songI was there the day you learned to driveThe first time that you got highI even helped you realize that she wasn't right for youYou fall down, I pick you up againI helped a boy become a manWhen your best friend diedI helped you cry and finally turn him looseI'm the words that'll hit youThat'll get you where you're goingSo you never go there aloneI'm the melody glued to the memoryThat you can't shake when it comes onI'm the part of you that you listen toRiding in the radio all night longI'm a songI'm a songI'm a songI'm the part of you that you listen toRiding in the radio all night longI'm the words that'll hit youThat'll get you where you're goingSo you never go there aloneI'm the melody glued to the memoryThat you can't shake when it comes onI'm the part of you that you listen toRiding in the radio all night longI'm a song...
