SEATTLE: WHAT A LONG, STRANGE TRIPTom spent four days in 2021 returning to Seattle, a very important place in Tom's life and his career. The effect of that visit surprised him.
I lived here for 18 years now and can't wait to hear what you got to say about this place Tom. I don't like it here much but curious to see what you think about this place.
Hey Tom,
Will you be coming to Seattle frequently for the Kraken games? Maybe you should see if we can do a fan meeting or dinner arrangement? It would be great hanging out with THE Father.
P.S. Agreed %100 with you about Seattle. It used to be a wonderful place and people were just awesome here. It has gotten worse for the recent years and I feel like all those people have left the city. Now we have a mix match of druggies and socially awkward crowd.
We loved you on the radio is Seattle back in the day. Because you came so often it really felt like you were one of us. I never got down to one of your events but they always sounded like a blast. I left about 25 years ago and like you I notice how much the city has changed whenever I go home. It’s tough to put a finger on why, but Seattle has always been a “nice” town and when you are nice there are always people who will take advantage of you. Seattle will need get mean and angry before people stop taking advantage. It may mean that Seattle won’t be Seattle anymore, but maybe it will be a nice place to love again.
Those were great times for us listeners, well, for me at least! How many hours listening to your show and it made it so I didn't even mind being stuck in traffic! Thanks for all of the great radio....
