This American Life
I've always loved the PRI show This American Life
with Ira Glass. The interesting biographical snapshots of ordinary people—who are sometimes not so ordinary—just fascinates me to no end. Now This American Life has moved online, as covered by Wired magazine's Monkey Bytes blog:
Just in case you’re one of the probably millions of NPR lovers who don’t have Showtime, the first episode of This American Life is now available via the Showtime website.A Motley Vision points out that one upcoming episode will feature a Mormon painter and a bearded Utahn. The New Republic also covers it.
You can catch Showtime's webisodes over here. You'll also catch a preview of the bearded post-Marxist student here (you'll have to find and click on "True Stories From Everyday People").

completely agreed. for years it's been the only reason to own a radio and consistently the best thing in all media (yes, I mean better than any movie, tv show or book).
That's interesting, and I think I agree as far as PRI is concerned. I have to admit, though, I'm a total junkie of certain AM talk show hosts.
