Listen "Johnny Appleseed and Neil Armstrong"
Episode Synopsis
In a previous episode I mentioned that the wife of Colonel Jesse Atwood was a distant relative of John Chapman, better known to people as Johnny Appleseed. He was, by all accounts, a rather eccentric frontiersman that traveled throughout Ohio and Indiana (often depicted with a cooking pot for a hat) planting apple trees along the way. In our True Hero segment, we will
hear about one of my generation’s heroes, Neil Armstrong, an astronaut from both the Gemini and Apollo programs—and the first man to walk on the moon.
