This American Life on Tour!

This site has lately been a series of articles that I find interesting with brief tidbits of analysis and ranting. This post will be different. This post is about my not so secret passion for NPR.

Actually this is about a PRI program but it airs on NPR affiliate stations and it coming to a city near you (if you live near Boston, Washington DC, Portland OR, Denver, or Chicago). We are talking about serious NPR celebrity action with Ira Glass, Sarah Vowell, Jonathan Goldstein and Davy Rothbart. The prize though, the grand super gold prize of champion NPR celebrity performance has lets it grace shine on Boston in the personage of David Sedaris. In Boston only? How cruel.

It's as if I have never been issued a challenge before. I now must take up this quest and journey north along the coast to the city on the cape. Go north young man go north. Or I could be sane and see them here in DC. That might be a better idea.

We are talking about This American Life on Tour. My friends, get your tickets now and go see the greatest show on the radio in person.
