:: ::

IN THIS REPEAT: Here's the first of two shows featuring a variety of people reflecting on the passing of Walter Hooper.

This is the first of several podcasts to honor the legacy of Walter Hooper who died on December 7, 2020. His funeral is scheduled for January 8th at the Oxford Oratory at 11 am local time. Most are aware he served as the Literary Executor of the C.S. Lewis Estate for many years. As you will hear in this episode, Walter was THE key person in making sure several books published by Lewis before his death stayed in print, as well as collecting and releasing new material that many enjoy today. In this episode, you will hear from a handful of people who knew Walter reflecting on some of their interactions with him (see the list below). The next episode (scheduled to release on January 8th) featuring others who knew him can be heard on the Pints with Jack podcast.
