Ira Glass Discusses ‘This American Life’

Little movies and cartoons between the stories. _______________________Podcasts: Have you found that podcasting has changed TAL? I’m incredibly grateful to the podcasts which give me access to TAL for my subway commute or running errands. I would imagine that there are lots of people like me and that TAL’s exposure has grown as a result of podcasts. But are there other ways in which the podcasting has changed the show?Ira Glass: Interestingly it’s pulled in a much younger audience. The radio audience has stayed the same size – 1. 8 million people a week – but now there’s this extra half million people and they’re much much younger than the public radio audience. Which is fantastic of course.

San Luis bispo Tribune
BARASCH HME Stephen Barasch’s San Luis bispo home illustrates the appeal of a skillfully- designed remodel. “It was a post-World War II California bungalow that we were using as a rental” he explained. “It would have been too small for us when our grown children came home to visit. ” To preserve the home’s character Barasch kept the roof forms and footprint of the original house. He completely gutted the interior and designed a 1750-square-foot addition. The remodeled structure employs what he calls a modern “villa-like” architectural theme using exposed recycled heavy timber trusses and composite roof beams that support extended roof overhangs.

When we moved in the person next door hadn?t mown his lawn. There was a little swing made of iron just left there. The trees had grown through it. He looked as though he had given up on life. He is very neat but doesn?t speak and goes to work in a battered car. I and a helper cleaned up his yard and the most wonderful thing happened. He bought a hosepipe and now waters his plants.
