Searching for Grace
Christopher Lydon used to have a radio show on NPR called Open Source Radio. The vagaries of media funding failed to sustain his airwave presence (a temporary state, I hope), but his voice remains online at http://www.radioopensource.org/. His recent interview with Anna Deavere Smith (What We're Going Through) is a long drink of clarity for the spiritually parched. As Christopher said in his email... "If you were able to stop listening, I want to know when, and why!"

Christopher Lydon also hosted "The Connection" on WBUR. I was a student at Boston University at the time (1995-2000). I walked by the WBUR station on Comm. Ave quite often. I did not know that the show ended not long after I graduated. His interview with the late Roger Shattuck (a BU prof.) is one of my favorites. Check it out at http://tinyurl.com/46x4qt.
