Talent



Terry Gross is one of my favourite

Fresh Air is a daily NPR interview show that you can listen to on the radio (for those who know how a radio works), on the internet, and via podcast. I get it every day on my ipod. Terry Gross, America's greatest interviewer, talks with a number of different actors, musicians, artists, and politicians (and all other types of interesting people). It's done in a way that is thoughtful, informative, and interesting – while somehow bringing out the mildly absurd. A good example is yesterday's special about animal health care, Michael Schaffer: America Is Going To The Dogs?
