Volume 3 Chapter 12: Mac Bates Returns

Mac is back! Fan favorite Mac Bates returns to help us close out Season 3 and share his newly published book, First Street Stories. First joining us in January 2023 as our first guest of the new year during Season 1, Mac now returns as the final guest of Season 3. In this episode, he brings more charming tales of growing up in downtown Snohomish in the 1950s and ’60s—this time enriched with historic stories of the town’s earlier days, drawn from his collaboration with local historian Taylor Russell. ⁠ You can find First Street Stories on Amazon—or just track Mac down around town and grab a copy from the man himself.
