Our resident folklorists Nancy Groce and Steve Winick from the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress share some politically-themed songs from the past.
Then, Andrew Blechman was shocked when his older New England neighbors moved to The Villages in central Florida. It's the world's largest gated retirement community, takes up more space than Manhattan and includes a golf course for every day of the month. Blechman explores this rapidly growing trend and its ramifications in his new book titled, "Leisureville: Adventures in America's Retirement Utopias."
Finally, through the 1960s, 70s and 80s, Dr. Dorian 'Doc' Paskowitz and his wife Juliette raised their nine children in a 24-foot camper - living wherever the surfing was good. The new documentary, "Surfwise" examines the results of the Paskowitz family's extraordinary upbringing. Bob talks with director Doug Pray and the still feisty Doc Paskowitz about his experiences.
Bob Edwards Weekend is a two-hour interview showcase, in which celebrated host Bob Edwards highlights the life and work of interesting people, from newsmakers, historians, and authors to artists, actors, and regular folks too.
