Favorite podcast EPISODE of all time? What are the podcast episodes you still think about years later? Make you laugh from crying or cry from laughing? Maybe you’ve listened to one over and over through the years. Looking for wisdom, insight, beauty and realness.

If you’ve never heard this you are in for a treat. Sendak is one of my favorite authors of all time. Of course Terry is a legend. And together they just dive right in to childhood, aging and dying, the meaning of art and life. And he’s so funny. I’ve listened to this one quite a few times.

“There is something so thrilling about listening to an author speak, especially someone like Maurice Sendak who has been a part of the lives of so many people since they were sentient beings.”
