As the NY Times reports, Ira Glass has taken his popular public radio show ‘This American Life,’ fancied it up with some moving pictures and sold it to Show Time, so no one like me will ever see it. :-(
The good ole radio show is available for free online, with archives. My personal favorite, Kevin Kelly’s piece in the very first show back in 1995.
Now I’ve always wondered if it is proper to say something has increased by 100% when it started at zero. For 100% of zero is still zero and if you double it you still have zero. Just things I think about…
In my defense, I think perhaps staring at ones radio constitutes 1% visuals.
