Day 29

Back from Jersey. The trip seemed marginally shorter than the drive down; I guess that's what you get when the driver goes 80 the whole way back. Still, I'm not quite in the mood for an extended blog post this evening, so I will just share the podcasts that got me through the drive back:

• This American Life - Funny, touching, and informative, often all in the same show. You've got to be in the mood for some episodes, like the two on the state of health care in the US that I skipped on this drive, but all are definitely worthwhile. I'll get back to those two on health care this week.
• Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! - How am I the last person on Earth to know about this? A news quiz show that features quick wit and occasional ridiculousness, and it makes me laugh.

In conclusion, I am a nerd. I used to be so anti-NPR... what happened?
