"Brady Carlson is a man with a presidential fixation."

WAMU’s Metro Connection did a really fun piece about my little project today. I met up with reporter Jacob Fenston at Arlington and together we visited the Kennedy and Taft gravesites, but then he went back and reported on the Washington and Wilson sites as well. And he’s a good writer and photographer, so if he decides to pursue the other presidents too, well, then I’m in big trouble!

It’s definitely worth a listen, if only to hear me described as I truly am – “in the state of ‘breathless hyper-giddiness of a tween at a Justin Bieber concert.'”
