One of the aspects of the 'This I Believe' canon is
how different the 'originals' are from the
contemporary ones we have heard on public radio in
the last year. The 1950s versions frequently address
religious beliefs. I bet some creative programmers
could play some TIBs back-to-back and get listeners to
call in live with their beliefs, and discuss what
our collective certainties tell us about the age we
live in.
Vermont Public Radio tackles soldiers' stories on
their return from Iraq. You don't need a date peg to
air this relevant chronicle. PRX enjoys highlighting
award-winning radio: check out the featured piece
from Homelands Productions (and many, many
more...).
A big welcome to Soundprint! New work being posted
with room for network newscasts.
Preview, download, air.

MICHAEL JOHNSON'S EDITORIAL BOARD PICK
Vietnam and the
Presidency
American Public Media, 60:00
More than 30 years after the Vietnam War ended,
Americans are still grappling with questions of why
it was fought, and how it was lost.
"This feature should run as a noontime special at
the beginning of the week, and then repeated twice
on different evenings later during the week. You'll
save the trouble of having your listeners calling
the station asking you to repeat the program." -
Editorial Board member Michael
Johnson
