Last weekend I was in Boston where I got a chance to see the first show on the Lost In America Tour of This American Life. This is the second time I’ve seen a live performance of the show - the first time in Town Hall a few years back.
This time around, we got to see Sarah Vowell and David Sedaris again (and fortunately Boston was the only city on the tour where David Sedaris performed - if you don’t know who David Sedaris is, click on the link to listen to one of the best Christmas stories I have ever heard!), there was also a piece by the publisher of Found magazine.
Ira Glass previewed something he was working on with Chris Ware (of Jimmy Corrigan fame) which was beautiful and haunting. If you haven’t heard of This American Life, you can listen to past shows via Real Audio FOR FREE! I’ve had a lot of days at work that have been made all the better listening to this show! If you don’t know where to begin, here’s one of my favorites.
