TAL, live!
arne April 8th, 2008On Thursday, May 1, there will be a live broadcast of This American Life, and it’s being shown in Gainesville! I really want to go but Emma is on Medicine then and isn’t going to go out on a Thursday night, having to go to work at dark-thirty the next morning, and I know that I’m not likely to go by myself, so…who’s with me? New stories from the TV show! Ira Glass! Ira Glass performing a radio story! Did I mention it’s live? One time only? Never before attempted in the history of public radio? It’s gonna be pretty cool*…
*And by cool, clearly I mean nerdy but hella-fun.

And the Mythbusters are coming too. Gainesville is some kind of geek mecca now.

I know! I’m going to have to get over my aversion to large crowds of people and go see them! Now if only we could get Jonathan Coulton to sing and John Hodgeman to read from his forthcoming book…

I would be in Geek Nirvana!!!
Hmm… I wonder if Voltaire would open for Coulton…? Hee.
