Last fall, Australian radio host Richard Fidler visited the radio class I teach -- The Transom Story Workshop. Richard repeatedly said to the class "Go for the weird."
Katie Klocksin got the message. Katie was a student at the workshop and she produced a story on what just might be the weirdest building on Cape Cod -- a geodesic dome built by Buckminster Fuller. Listen to Katie's story, "Bucky's Dome" on this edition of HowSound.
And, if you're interested in learning how to produce radio, the Transom Story Workshop is currently accepting applications for the Fall of 2012. Come to Cape Cod, find something weird, then make a story about it.
