The Midnight Citizen 227: "Skip the Preach, Go to the Beach"
Cover.jpg

Join Mike in the studio on a Saturday night…

...talking about a trip he took to the beach with the church youth group in 1996, and how most of the time was spent not on the sand, but in the cold conference room of the Holiday Inn, praying and reading the bible. Yikes. He should’ve just skipped the preach and gone to the beach.

Also: I finished teaching summer camp this week; working alongside my students; teaching Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” using dodgeball; the promise of the Internet in the 1990’s; remembering the show “227”.
