Adam Says: A Quick Fix for the Weekend and Then Some

As you should know by now I am a fan of "This American Life" its a public radio program... you can find out more at their site, but the important news is that "This American Life" is now also a TV program of show time, and as this involves change many fans of the program were nervous about the show. Well since it came on TV I figured I would not have chance to see it, but it turns out the first episode is available online for free... so click the link and check out the program. Personally I think the tv program was good but the radio show is way better, but thats just me... check it out for yourself and decide.

The Kings of Leon new album, "Because of the Times," lands April 3. It got panned in this month's issue of Spin magazine, but then again this the same magazine that drools over Justin Timberlake so take it for what its worth.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At the Worlds End is in theaters May 25th. The trailer is online NOW! Get stoked!

Adam Says: This American Life

Every Sunday morning as my wife and I are preparing for corporate worship at our church we listen to our favorite radio program on NPR. Now I know it may sound silly to say that we have a favorite RADIO PROGRAM in this age of television, internet, movies, and television-internet-movie-phones, but that's is the only way to describe our feelings about the program "This American Life." The show is produced in Chicago and hosted by Ira Glass(whom I have no idea what he looks like, but I assume he youngish of average height, slim with dark hair and thick dark glasses, and probably a constant five o'clock shadow.) What really excites us about the program is the amazing storytelling that happens on it every week; I mean the program is just a collection of stories from every day american life, told by those involved and narrated by Ira so there has to be storytelling, but it doesn't have to be this good. Now on March 22nd "This American Life" will be coming to Showtime as a television show, and admittedly I am worried. I don't have TV so I won't be watching it, but I am a little scared that the amazing images I have from the great stories I hear on the program will be ruined by actual visuals, and whenever change occurs there is always the fear that in some way what was once great will become less of itself. At any rate we love the program and listen to it every week, and we think you should check it out... this post is littered with links to the website, but if that is not enough here it is one more time http://www.thisamericanlife.org/. Log on check out the free podcast of the show, watch the trailer for TV program and decide for yourself.
