Steve is taking me to a Live taping of This American Life tonight, and I’m so stinking excited. Honestly I’ve only listened to 4-5 episodes of this radio show but I think it’s so great. The Radio lives. IT LIVES! Basically Ira Glass narrates while writers / readers / assorted folks recount or tell stories around a theme. Good old fashioned story telling. Tonight the theme is ‘returning to the Crime Scene.’ The show will be shown live in theaters across the US. i.e., I am wearing a dress.
I’m perhaps most excited about Dan Savage live – and also listening to this guy:
– who’s created a one man show about his personal journey with sleep-walking. Like, in a funny sort of way. I’m going to laugh, Damnit!
