Epi 143 - Patrick Tierney Wild

Why We Are Friends · Mar 18, 2026 · 2h 41m

Bethel native and town historian, Patrick Tierney Wild, joins the boys in studio to talk about attending school at Plumtrees school house, dancing with Meg Ryan, teaching history at Lincoln Tech, Abbot Tech and Ridgefield High School, breaking Bethel High School's mile record (which he still holds), living at home alone his senior year, George Washington's time in Bethel, his love for PT Barnum Square and why we are (now) friends.
