Ms. Jamerson’s Literary Saloon: Podcast for June 12, 2009
This week on the podcast the topic is “A new model for a broken motor city” by Megan O’Toole, a story of new communities emerging from the skeleton of abandoned Detroit. Supplemental to that is the news story “An Effort to Save Flint, Mich., by Shrinking It.”
Show notes:
• It should be noted that I work at the National Post with Megan O’Toole.
• Here is the photo gallery of Detroit mentioned by Marit (note, the picture attached to this post is of Detroit, but it is stock photography).
• John correctly says that Hyman G. Rickover has much more to do with the creation of the Nuclear sub than Eienstien did (this was lost due to an audio issue).
• Information about the Pirate Party of Sweden.
Next week we are looking at “Don’t: The secret of self control” from the New Yorker.
