I heard it on my local NPR affiliate as I was driving (hadn't seen your blog post). It stood out as excellent. Substance-rich, jargon-free, balanced, clear, informative. Good radio work, too - no distracting verbal tics, for example, and just the right tempo of speech. And it sounded natural. Good work!
- it would be Thurs, 1300 GMT. But you can only stream the entire hour, not individual segments. She's something like two-thirds of the way through it, if I remember right.

That's right, newshonky....which means we're 8 hours closer to one of two possibilities:
1) the economic armageddon that Obama campaigned on, or

I'm hoping it's number two, and in four years, you'll be counting down to the end of the next administration.

I would like to listen to this but it's already happened, obviously. Is it available on streaming somewhere?
