Booth One - Celebrating Culture And Conversation

Gary and Roscoe share two astounding Booth One experiences, both figuratively and literally, on this week's episode. But first, Gary profiles the free diver who claims he hypnotized a shark in order to remove a fishing hook caught in its mouth. Talk about a fish tale. Read how to hypnotize a shark!We're not sure we believe this entire story, but if it's true, there's hope for curing Gary's phobia. Maybe. Roscoe gets surprising news that one of his lifelong idols, famed actress and chanteuse Barbara Cook, will be appearing off-Broadway in May in a one-woman show based on her autobiography. Read details about the show here. After picking his jaw up off the floor, Roscoe vows to see her for perhaps the 100th time. Stay tuned for a possible interview opportunity at a later date.

A truly remarkable and awe-inspiring evening. Th
