I’ve recently rekindled my decade-long mad, passionate love affair with the weekly radio (and now TV!) program This American Life (and if you aren’t similarly swoony over Ira Glass and the show, what the hell is wrong with you exactly?). Yeah, I’ve been sending TAL roses again, leaving it little love notes, staging candlelight dinners… you know how it goes. Anyway, in the process of becoming more deeply embroiled in radioland again I came across this show called Radiolab out of WYNC, which I think can be best described as something akin to TAL’s little science-geek brother. Or maybe a younger cousin. Or perhaps even a genetically engineered bastard love child (if that’s, umm, even possible). In any case, if you like TAL, you’ll definitely dig on some Radiolab… just trust me on this one, mkay? You can subscribe to the Radiolab podcast here.
Radio: it does a brain good. Four out of five neuroscientists agree.

The Mommyblogging anthology I’m featured in — Sleep Is For The Weak — is now available for your pre-ordering pleasure! The contributor list is pretty stellar, and I’m beyond geeked to have been included. Thanks to the magnificent Rita Arens for all her hard work in making this happen!
