Do heroes still exist? We can think of one. Oklahoma Today editor-in-chief Nathan Gunter reflects on his personal upbringing in Western Oklahoma and the inspiration he took from Thomas P. Stafford, the NASA astronaut who was born in the same town he grew up in. Today visitors to Weatherford, Oklahoma, can check out the Stafford Air and Space Museum, a loving tribute to the history of aviation and Stafford's work to advance scientific and cross-cultural understanding. Also on this week's show, the editors keep the Western Oklahoma love going by listing off some of their favorite places to eat there. And podvents dare us to follow the red brick road. You won't want to miss it!
