Ok, so This American Life.....

So, I am catching up on podcasts, and foundNPR's This American Life when it was a topic for discussion on How Much Do We Love? Every week, a reporter, or a group of reporters, use audio recordings to talk about a particular topic, from The War in Iraq to Summer Roadtrips...well produced and written, you feel as though you are part of what is going on around you.

You. Must. Subscribe. (Taffy, I feel you in particular would enjoy these shows)

I just listened to the episode from three weeks ago, called "Duty Calls." It is about a man who goes back to Florida to take care of his alcoholic mother and younger, often arrested brother. It's just an amazing piece of work, and if it is possible to obtain that episode, I can't recommend it enough.

And of course, you can always listen to us before it! :)

This American Life is available on iTunes, or you can listen to the stream of it on www.thisamericanlife.org.
