Replay: The Shawshank Redemption
Hey listeners! Jeff here. We’re taking a little break so Dan can deal with some personal family matters. We’ll be back soon—but in the meantime, we thought you might enjoy a flashback. This month’s offering is a replay of our first episode from way back in November 2017. The Last Jedi topped the box office, Wonder by R.J. Palacio was the best-selling book of the year, and “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran dominated the Billboard Charts. It was a simpler time, listeners. Allow Dan and I to take you to the way-back-when, if only for an hour. It’s time. Barter for a rock hammer, pin up your poster of Rita Hayworth, and prepare to inspire hope in your fellow inmates. This is a replay of The Hero’s Journey of The Shawshank Redemption.
