Week 4 :: You ARE What You LISTEN To

This American Life

Stories of ordinary and extraordinary people and circumstances. For some time, this has been one of the most widely subscribed podcasts in the country, and for good reason. As your guide, Ira Glass does a remarkable job integrating multiple stories into a single themed show. Much like The Moth, This American Life gives you a little taste of everything, laughter, tears (I will admit to a few while listening during my long runs), and more often than not, amazing illustrations of "The Butterfly Effect."

Official FREE, weekly podcast of the award-winning radio show “This American Life.” First-person stories and short fiction pieces that are touching, funny, and surprising. Hosted by Ira Glass, from WBEZ Chicago Public Radio. In mp3 and updated Mondays. iTunes
