Jon writes foreword to new book + great new interview!

I mentioned the book "Be The Change" a few entries ago, because Jon was mentioned on its back cover according to ysmarko, who've responded with:

btw, seeing visitors come to ysmarko from various switchfoot sites (due to my post the other day about zach’s book) reminds me that i failed to mention that switchfoot lead singer jon foreman (a fellow san diegan, and a really good guy) wrote the forward for the book.

The newest item on my wishlist... (click image to buy)

Clifton from the message boards posted mp3s of the Rhapsody-exclusive interview Switchfoot did recently. It's hilarious. Listen...

His posting was accompanied by this message:

btw don't freak out that it starts with track 5, 1-4 are completely unrelated to this, so don't worry about it, and track 8 should be TIM ON DREW, the file is TIM ON THE BAND so note that mistake

Download them to your computer from here. Thanks Clifton!

Lastly, Podcast 18 is out, and it's awesome. Andyspeak:

ok so i went crazy on this one. it's over 6 minutes long.
crazy, i know, but we were in europe, and that doesnt happen very often. enjoy. download it on itunes and get all your friends to too!
or watch it on youtube!

That book looks good whether Jon wrote the forward or not, it's on my list now.

I just read an interesting little article in Newsweek, and this book was mentioned.

This may become very, very cool...

hey everybody. i just bought zachs book. i'm actually gonna do a speech on it for a book report. should be pretty cool. wish me the best.
i thought it was very good. its an easy read, short and big print. lots of good people mentioned in it. definetly makes you want to change the world and i think zach turned me into an abolitionist too.
jon said some really nice things about him.
oh, one last thing. if you want to get involved (ie- get a petition to end modern day slavery that will be taken to capitol hill in the spring, go to theamazingchange.com and click on 10 top things you can do to get involved)
peace.
