Thank you so much for listening.  As I say, we’ve got a great guest today, who, after reading his new book, I’ve been looking forward to for a while and whom I’ll introduce in just a moment…But, quickly, if you missed any episodes, last week was our 677th episode, and I spoke to Smithsonian Associate Carole Adrienne about her new book, ‘Healing a Divided Nation. Two weeks ago, I had another great conversation with author and Smithsonian Associate Jonathan Freedland, an award-winning author and who has written the amazing new book, ‘The Escape Artist,’ Wonderful stuff…If you missed those shows, along with any others, you can go back and check them out with my entire back catalog of shows, all free for you there on our website, NotOld-Better.com…and if you leave a review, we will read it at the end of each show…leave reviews on Apple Podcasts for us.

For fans of the game—or anyone who loves high adventure—Csonka’s new book, which is excellent Head On is a captivating, nostalgic account of grit, grace, and gumption told by an iconic Hall of Famer who continues to gain ground—figuratively, literally, and unapologetically—every day.

    The part where he mentions that he wants to be adopted by a more functional family even at 45 yrs really hits home. Really delineates how no matter how old and independent you are, you still need love and support.
