New studies show that 55 million years ago, the North Pole was as warm as Florida. Environmental reporter Andy Revkin explains what the latest research reveals about the Arctic's past and future. Then, Malachy McCourt and Marian Seldes celebrate Bloomsday on Broadway, the 25th annual marathon reading of Ulysses. And we'll hear about one man's struggle to become a New York writer after an unsuccessful stint as a professional baseball player. Plus, Ruth Reichl joins us for a look at urban farming.
