RADIO CURIOUS: LONG FORM INTERVIEWS ABOUT LIFE and IDEAS
Welcome to the 31st year of Radio Curious, now proudly part of the Library of Congress, and regularly broadcast on approximately 100 radio stations.
Here you will find close to 1000 half hour interviews on a curiously wide array of topics concerning life and ideas. These programs are a gift to you from Radio Curious host and producer Barry Vogel. He started Radio Curious in 1991, to expand the work he began in 1974 as an Attorney, Counselor and Mediator in Ukiah, California, the Mendocino County seat, located about 110 miles north of San Francisco, California.
THIS WEEK’S INTERVIEW: My guest in this program is Don Samson. The creative imagination of playwright Don Samson is the topic of this edition of Radio Curious. In May 2015, I had the good fortune of seeing a ten minute play entitled “Blind Date,” written by my long time friend, who lives in nearby Willits, California. For many years prior to becoming a playwright, Don Samson researched and wrote legal briefs for criminal defense attorneys, an experience we also discuss in this program.
After seeing the local production of “Blind Date,” I was curious about the circumstances that came to Don Samson’s mind when he created this play, so I invited him to visit the Radio Curious studios. We met on May 22, 2015 and began our conversation with his description of those circumstances.
Don Samson recommends the book, which is also a play, “Antigone,” by Sophocles.
