    Naked Neighbours, Eloquent Elbows, and More with Frank Racioppi
    Aug 29 2024

    Join your host Danny Brown as he puts this week's 5 random questions to Frank Racioppi. Answers include a naked neighbour, a special use for lotion, and a life in one word. Let's jump in!

    Answering the questions this week: Frank Racioppi

    After 38 years as a speechwriter and editor for a Fortune 50 company, I retired and indulged my love of podcasting, starting and managing a successful podcast review online publication -- Ear Worthy. I started it in 2017 and have enjoyed connecting with indie podcasters and anyone who supports podcasting. My brother Paul and I had a podcast four years ago called False Facts, but it was difficult to keep a regular recording schedule. I loved writing my entire life and wrote for print magazines in the 80s from New Jersey Monthly, The Pet Dealer, American Health, The Sewing Circle, etc. I've also published five novels and four nonfiction books in the last four years. The novels range from a romance about two people bonding over the love of reading called For The Love Of Books to Least Best Employee, a novel about surviving as middle management in Corporate America. My most popular nonfiction book was called The COVID Hotel.
