Who says NPR is boring?

[GenuineRisk]

This audio piece is about recently uncovered dirty recordings from the 1890's. That's not a mistype- 1890's:

It really reminds me of how the more things change, the more they stay the same-- a new sound technology (wax cylinders) comes out, and right away people record sex and profanity. And we thought people were so prim and proper back then!

I seldom listen to NPR (a friend emailed me the link to the story). Maybe I'll start tuning in...

I listen everyday. My favorite segment are the readings from the writer's almanac and the historical notes.

Frank Deford has some amusing moments from time to time as well.

Science Friday with Ira Flato is on ... yes indeed, this Friday.

Great broadcast. My favorite listening time.
