First Crushes

Saturday, May 25, 2002

We remember first crushes, 1980s style and vibe on the street, the lost minutes of September 11, and some lesser known moments in the life of Stephen Jay Gould. Plus another episode of "What's Your Word" with Erin McKean.


"Last Forever"

Saturday, May 18, 2002

We consider the gravesites of forgotten famous people, the life cycle of the lowly mayfly (in a play by David Ives), and the staying power of music by Dick Connette and Sonya Cohen, from the band "Last Forever," who perform their music live in the studio.


Amateurs

Saturday, May 11, 2002

This week we've got a collection of unflappable amateurs - astronomers, would-be models, record collectors and mah jong players. Not to mention the brave souls who put their writing to the test in this month's "Five Sounds in Search of an Author" contest.
