On NPR's Wild Card Podcast,
heavyweight host Jonathan Goldstein talks about his early years as a writer.
I was writing and no one was buying what I was selling.

Protests broke out in Portland, Oregon last night.
Portland police say U.S.
Border Patrol agents shot and wounded two people there.
NPR's Jimena Bastille reports Portland police say both victims were hospitalized.
According to DHS, U.S.
Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop in Portland,
Oregon, when the shooting occurred.
The agency said the passengers of the vehicle and target for the operation was suspected to be a Venezuelan immigrant in the U.S.
illegally.
They also said the Border Patrol agent feared for his life and fired a,
quote, defensive shot, and the vehicle fled from the scene.
In a statement, police chief Bob Day asked the community to, quote, remain calm as they worked.
The shooting took place a day after a woman was killed by an immigration and customs enforcement officer in Minnesota.
