We’ve had Mr. Macomber on the show over the years to talk about his novels and his life’s adventures, and he was a guest on our show Three Song Stories back in 2018. He joins us to talk about what he and his wife have experienced since Hurricane Ian made landfall, completely destroying their Pine Island home.
