Find it. Hear it. Air it.

We're looking ahead as much as we're looking back.
There's more strong new work on PRX this week---voices from Katrina from StoryCorps; a new American Radio Works doc about Biloxi; the textured series about teaching English from KQED and a new documentary about the NYPD.
What do you and your station have underway for Thanksgiving and the end-of-the-year holidays? PDs are looking for radio beyond the usual December fare.
Also, it's not too soon to think about January and Black History Month in February.
Be original. And be early!
