Bill Ehrhart Full Show

This is my full interview with Bill Ehrhart, Bill Ehrhart joins Jim to discuss two of his books, "Thank You For Your Service: Collected Poems," and "Getting Shot At, Essays on War, Conflict and Culture Clash. While discussing several essays and poems from these extraordinary books, we of course veer off into Bill's reflections on his participation in the Ken Burns documentary on Vietnam, the need to study history, and what a young student maybe should study after high school. We discuss his essay on the myth of Vietnam Vets being spit on upon return from Vietnam. Bill also shares his poems and heartfelt feelings for his wife and daughter.  Yes we still finish with John Prine.
