  1. Episode 96: Roman Mars, host of 99% Invisible

    I am a fan of public radio. I’ve been fortunate enough to have hosted conversations with both Dick Gordon and Bob Edwards – two of my favorite public radio interviewers – for this podcast.

    Earlier this year, I discovered the 99% Invisible podcast thanks to a recommendation made by my Stitcher app. I’ve been hooked ever since!

    Our guest, Roman Mars, is the producer and host of this great podcast! I was delighted when he accepted my invitation to be on the “other side” of the microphone.

  3. Weekend America: Saving the Story

    Saving the Story : MIT is teaming up with a new movie studio in Massachusetts to create the storytelling technology of the future. We asked Reporter Sean Cole to look into the story, but instead of doing a radio report about it, he wrote a sci-fi movie-type drama, and cast himself as the reporter. So grab some Jujubes. Sit back. And enjoy the show.

  4. The little man behind the curtain Pulling Back the Curtain

    Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes here at OTM? (Hint: Not everybody speaks as cleanly as it might seem.) A few years ago, we invited reporter John Solomon backstage to see how the sausage is made.

  5. The Bias Bias

    So, is NPR liberal leaning? Are public radio employees broadcasting a bunch of leftist propaganda? This American Life host Ira Glass issues a challenge.

  6. Science Friday Archives: Steven Johnson and ‘Where Good Ideas Come From”

    How did Darwin develop some of his ideas? Why did YouTube burst onto the social media scene when it did? And how are those two developments connected?

    In this segment, we’ll talk with Steven Johnson, author of the book "Where Good Ideas Come From." We’ll talk about how great ideas come to be, and what conditions help to foster creativity and spur advances in thought.

  7. #223: Classifieds from This American Life by Chicago Public Radio

    The classifieds from two Chicago newspapers create a portrait of the whole city: jobs offered, missed connections, the crap that people sell each other, and musicians’ ISOs.
