Listeners Loved It — buy a copy?

KWMR thanks you folks at American Routes for making the Woody Guthrie special available to those of us who are not your subscribers. I've had three thrilled listeners (we usually only hear about our locally-produced shows), including one who'd like to buy a copy of it. Is that possible?
Best,
