PRODUCTION NOTE
When I started Entry Points several years ago, I recorded and released 12 episodes before I stopped and eventually withdrew them all from publication. As I decided to resume the podcast, one episode particularly stood out as one of my favorite conversations among several wonderful guests who took the time to sit with me.
I hope you enjoy this “classic” episode of Entry Points from the original series in 2017, featuring my guest and friend, Scoop Jackson.
Special Guest: Scoop Jackson.
