I really love listening to the radio, especially radio shows like This American Life and The Next Big Thing. And one of my favorite contributers on The Next Big Thing is Miranda July. When I am sad or a bit down I spend a lot of time streaming these audio files and marvel at how great this world is that we can expierence all these shows for free.
One of the funniest things I've heard in a long time by her was here. (Scroll down and click on the "Arguments" audio file.) This is a project where she asked people to send in a transcript of an argument and she then had actors re-enact them. Really funny. She also has an ongoing project at Learning to Love you More.
You can buy this really cute radio here-and support NPR!
