Episode 118: Dave Barry

He likes pink flamingos.  He wrote a humor column in the Miami Herald for more than 20 years that earned him a Pulitzer Prize for Commentary. Dave Barry also writes books. His latest is called Swamp Story. It’s very funny with a totally ridiculous plot that takes place in the Everglades. There's a character who runs around pretending to be a creature called the Melon Monster and a support boar, as in wild pig, who pees on a politician during a press conference. Barry also ran a mock campaign for President as a Libertarian. And did I mention he played lead guitar in a band called the Rock Bottom Remainders. His band mates included other writers like Stephen King and Scott Turow. Barry is a man of many talents. We have a lot of laughs on this episode of “Now What?”
