Joined today by the Boston Herald's award winning reporter and New York Times best-selling author, Dave Wedge. Dave talks about growing up in Boston, his updated and re-released Tom Brady book, (“12”), and his thoughts about watching Brady hoist the Lombardi trophy as a member of the Buccaneers. Dave shares his passion for music and the interviews he has conducted with the legends in the field, such as: Ozzy, Gene Simmions, Biggie and more. We talk about his incredible new book “The Last Days of John Lennon”, how the idea came about, how it was working with James Patterson, and the hurdles they faced in promoting the book due to the pandemic. Dave reveals the success and the shortcomings of John Lennon, how after 5 years in musical seclusion he was finally ready to take off for his second career and why his message of Peace and Love is needed more today than ever. We chat about Mark David Chapman, mental illness, gun control and how sad it is that his name is always linked with Lennon. We discuss how John Lennon would be viewed today with his outgoing expressions with various movements, will Chapman ever get paroled and how the Beatles still resonate today. All this plus we chat about Dave’s new crime podcast coming soon. Follow Dave here:
