Hello, hello podcast listeners, Malcolm Gladwell here, as you know I'm the president of

Pushkin Industries.

What you might not know is that I've been a fan of Paul Simon since I was a wee little

Malcolm.

And recently I sat down with Paul Simon and my oldest friend and the co-host, the Broken

Record Podcast Bruce Hadlam, to create a new audio book, Miracle and Wonder, Conversations

with Paul Simon.

Miracle and Wonder is the product of 30 hours of sessions with one of the greatest songwriters

in music history.

We talked about his life growing up in Queens, his influences and the sources of his

extraordinary creativity.

This isn't a biography.

There are two perfectly good biographies out there already.

Miracle and Wonder is an audiobiography that sheds new light on Paul Simon's life in

his own words and through his own music.

You can go to MiracleAudiobook.com, enter your email and payment, you'll then receive

an email and follow the easy instructions and Miracle and Wonder will be added to your

favorite podcast app.

Now I'd like to play you a chapter, Miracle Wonder.

I think you'll hear and understand why, I and so many others consider him to be one

of the greatest musicians and songwriters of all time.

You know, listen to this story, this is quite amazing.
