Ira Glass, A Public Radio Original

Ira Glass is the creator and host of public radio?s ?This American Life,? a program that?s now carried on hundreds of public radio stations nationwide [including NHPR?you can hear it at 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and again on Sundays at 6:00 p.m.]. He?ll be in New Hampshire on Wednesday, April 25th, when he appears at Keene?s Colonial Theatre to talk about his show, and how he and his staff put it together each week. Ira talked Nathan Irwin about the kinds of stories he tries to tell on his program, what he looks for in a story idea, and why he thinks are the stories on ?This American Life? are different from those you?ll find elsewhere in the media.
