In this episode, I meet with LONGTIME South Bend Tribune columnist Bill Moor. Bill started at the Tribune in 1973 and spent almost 50 years serving in numerous roles including a sports writer, editor, and human interest columnist.
During our conversation, we get into his years at the Tribune, our common love of the Chicago Cubs, and even his experiences flying on top of airplanes and riding on the back of garbage trucks.
We also talk about Bill’s new book titled Kissing the Frog. As you’ll hear, the fiction book is told through the eyes of a 15 year old boy named Spanky. It’s set in South Bend and references to local streets, places, schools, names, etc. are littered throughout. It will definitely bring you back to your childhood!
