TD Mischke is the Bob Dylan of talk radio and podcasts—an unpredictable, poetic wanderer who turns the ordinary into something profound, mesmerizing listeners with his raw curiosity and storytelling genius. I'm fortunate to have discovered this podcast 30 years after the first time I heard this fella talk when I was a college kid delivering pizzas in Mankato.
