Word of Mouth
Today on Word of Mouth, writer and researcher Richard Florida tells us why picking a place to live may be the most important decision we ever make. We'll also get a taste of a new desert made of frozen pickle juice, we'll hear some music from Austin-by-way-of-New-Hampshire band Okkervil River, and we'll find out how video game techology could start affecting all of our lives.
