Volume 184 Getting Worse Before It Gets Better
July 22, 2020, 10:19 p.m.
An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently airing on 30 or 40 stations around the world, the network has ordered another five months of episodes. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.
Winifred Gallagher - In Good Times and in Bad
July 22, 2020, 9:58 p.m.
Working on God
Why are we the way we are? How should life be lived? When should we start living it that way and why? âWorking on Godâ is a new book by Winifred Gallagher, a science writer who lives in New York City. When her early learning about Christianity was shaken by her college education, she asked, what if religion could be something else? After writing books on how heredity and experience create the individual, and how our surroundings shape our thoughts and emotions, she has chosen to work on God.
Winnifred Gallagher recommends âMeeting Jesus Again for the First Time,â by Marcus Borg.
