  1. Understanding Creative Savants - Studio 360

    We all know the Thomas Edison line: genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration. But there are those who don’t seem to perspire at all. Their extraordinary gifts seem to come from no where.

  2. WNYC’s Radiolab - After Life

    "In this hour of Radiolab, we take several different looks at that moment when we slip from life … to the other side. Is it even a moment? If it is a moment, when is that moment? And what happens afterward? It’s a show of questions that don’t have easy answers. So, in a slight departure from our regular format, we bring you eleven meditations on how, when, and even if we die." From http://www.wnyc.org/shows/radiolab/
