Coffee With Jim

Coffee With Jim, November 3, 2024

We are on the road for the annual fall tour. So, we have enlisted the help of a couple guest hosts to share America's story, and to inspire a road trip or two. But their focus seems to be on singing my praises and on telling the story of Jim Hinckley's America. 
I appreciate the compliments and am quite humbled. BUt as our guests aren't real, I will have to accept their praise with a grain of salt. 
Today's program is a glimpse of the future. Today's program is a deep dive into the exciting and unnerving world of AI. It is a manifestation of tinkering with NotebookLM from Google. 
Thoughts?

Touring the country with one night stands as a stand up comic, hosting a Telly Award winning Route 66 program, and work as an Emmy Award winning producer and writer has given Tom Gregory an intimate knowledge of small town America. But that is only part of the story. 
On today's program Tom shares a twisted path that includes growing up in Chicago, and launching his career with radio programs in the Cajun country of Louisiana. This conversation with Tom, Executive Producer at New Orleans based tGo Productions, is a road trip inspiring deep dive into the magic of small town America and two lane adventures.

Our visit with acclaimed documentary film producer John Paget was not just inspirational. It was a refreshing view of America as seen though the lens of his camera. As a bonus, we were provided with a tantalizing look behind the curtain at his exciting Route 66 centennial project.
