That's Life with Tom Ferguson

Thu, 03/10/2022 - 11:00am | Lois Richter

Another very interesting fellow that I met on After Hours is Tom Ferguson.  He is retired from working for the city of Phoenix as a system creator, studio maker, and IT wizard.  (Well, that's not the word HE used, but to me it seems like wizardry!)

The Ferguson family moved to Arizona when he was 10, and he has never found reason to leave.  This is a fascinating interview sparked with bits of tech info and CUTE CATS!  

Cats?  Why cats?  Well, it turns out that Tom has been a photographer for a long time and one of his favorite subjects are his cats.  (That's them in the picture.)  

His t-shirt reads:   MY MIND IS LIKE MY INTERNET BROWSER:

19 TABS OPEN, 3 OF THEM ARE FROZEN, 

AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE MUSIC IS COMING FROM.

The Folk Brothers for March 9, 2022: Transatlantic sounds old and new

Wed, 03/09/2022 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

On their debut album in 1968, a group of kids from the suburbs of north London covered a Richard Farina song about a city in Nevada. During the pandemic, a singer-songwriter from Edinburgh teamed up with musicians from Tucson. Sometime in between, a guitarist/mandolinist from Nashville became a founding member of a band of transatlantic musicians who play the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow every winter. Find out who they all are on today's show.
