Welcome to our annual Bookmarks episode.

We read a lot of books to research under the influence, but every season there isn't enough room to include all the great stories we find.

So this episode is dedicated to those stories that didn't fit into our regular shows.

Sometimes they are surprising, and many times they are words to live by.

One day, when I was in university studying radio and television back in the Jurassic period, the professor was talking about what all of us in that room had in common.

He said, we all love movies, we all love television, we all love radio, we all love great writing.

Everybody was nodding yes.

Then the professor said, and we are all terrible at math.

and all 40 of us couldn't argue with that, which made me laugh.
