Despite the fact that I am not even slightly American, This American Life [hosted by Ira Glass, pictured] is the one radio show which I will go out of my way to listen to. Since I first encountered it two years ago, I’ve heard almost every episode, as have a few other people I know (we get it via the website). I love regular contributors Sarah Vowell and David Sedaris (although lately they seem to have moved on to other things) and I think I have a slight crush on [occasional contributor and very hard to find] Starlee Kine.
