I've been working at the Kojo Nnamdi Show off and on for a bit as a freelance producer. A while back I got to produce a pre-recorded interview with William Gibson, partly about his newest book Spook Country
(which I was lucky enough to get him to sign) but mostly just about his thoughts on technology and society and such. This was needless to say VERY exciting for a nerd like me. Anyway, that interview will be airing today on WAMU at 1pm EST. If you have the chance and are interested please do listen, it's a fun interview, and Gibson is a fun guy to listen to and talk with (he's also very very friendly).You can listen on the radio if you're in the DC area at 88.5 FM, or you can listen online at wamu.org. You can even listen later on at the website or through the podcast of the Kojo Show. Unfortunately because we had to do this interview as a pre-tape, you can't call in.
Also the interview with Paul Haggis beforehand at noon is pretty interesting, and the rebroadcast of the discussion on "Uncontacted Tribes" is pretty interesting as well, and I did most of the editing on it.
PS Spook Country is a lot of fun, and I'd highly recommend it to all of you!
