Loved this episode with Thomas!!! Would love to hear more…
Yep, he’s special, will try to have him again! Thanks for listening my north Fargo friend and neighbor.
Mike,
Wow!
I grew up with the Goltz’s but I have not seen Tom since the early 70’s. I have seen and talked with Neill periodically and knew Tom had spent lots of time in Turkey and Azerbaijan but I did not know any other details of his most fascinating life. Any way I thoroughly enjoyed the interview and am going to read Tom’s books. Thanks for a great interview. Take care. Jim
Jim, great hearing from you! You should know, your niece is doing very well with her business in Bismarck. Thank you for listening, and yes – Thomas is quite remarkable. Have fun reading, take good care ~ Mike
Favorite podcast so far. But two of my best highschool chums. TC Goltz and I have an interesting dichotomy (at least as world politics goes), I am an honorary Armenian via my pals here in LA. Thomas is referred to by many as Thomas the Turk. So when Tom’s in LA and we have the opportunity to get together, sometimes we gather together our friends for an Armenian feast. One time hosted by Jane Gibb. Remember Jane.
Anyway…Love your podcasts Mike. Thomas is, as he always has been, honest to the core.
James… thank you for listening. Thomas is a fascinating interview and has lived an extraordinary life. If I could have been at the Armenian feast… my oh my! Take good care. Hope all is going well. Sem
I just listened to the podcast. It was great. Yes, Tommy definitely needs to come back! I have the Turkiye Diary and am about to start it.
Gayle…He’s amazing, and you’ll love Turkiye Diary. Have a wonderful day. Sem
Thanks for this episode. Having grown up with Tom in Fargo, I had no idea that Tom had done all these things. What an interesting life he is leading.
Mary…Thomas is an absolutely fascinating person. He could easily be a fairly regular guest. So many stories to share. Thank you for listening. Have a terrific day. Sem
