About this episode

Happy 175th Episode! I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate 175 episodes than conversing with the pretty perfect, Kathleen Rooney . Her brand new book, Man Overboard, is a funny and moving novel in which a former college swimmer falls off a cruise ship…or was he pushed? In the meantime, he has to keep treading water as memories and regrets wash over him. I fell for this book hook, line, and sinker. I had a blast discussing Man Overboard! , the Gulf of Mexico, cruise ships, Kathleen’s inspiration for the book, her collaboration with her sister for Leaf Town Forever , and most important: music! Kathleen Rooney is the gift that keeps on giving and I’m thrilled she came back on the show…
