Synopsis

These perceptive essays were first broadcast on stations of the WSHU Public Radio Network in Long Island and Connecticut, where Bouchier’s ironic wit has made him one of the best known public radio personalities in the region. He is also host of the podcast “A Few Well Chosen Words.”

Out of Order is the latest collection of his radio commentaries, covering the past four extraordinary years. He brings a fresh approach to everything, including the insanity of politics in an election year and the COVID-19 hysteria. Other essays take on the wild world of social media, DNA testing and ancestor worship, magical thinking, and unreliable advice columns. They all find a place in this latest compendium of astute observations and whimsical opinions.
