This American Life for January 09, 2007
7:30 PM - 8:30 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "The Super"
Reporter Jack Hitt tells the story of how he helped organize tenants and threaten a rent strike in a New York City building back in the back in the 1980's. The situation got pretty ugly. Mobster ugly. Stories of the mysterious hold supers have on their buildings, or their buildings have on them.
This American Life is an award-winning critically acclaimed weekly program describing and documenting contemporary American life. Each week a theme is chosen, and host Ira Glass and a variety of writers and performers share stories in a range of styles: monologues, documentaries, short radio plays, “found recordings,” and original works for radio. Music underscores many stories.
