I’ve come to believe that the new media is not cable internet, or TiVo, or advertisements played for you as you stand at the urinal. It’s good old-fashioned radio. Low tech, high touch. In the last few months I’ve rediscovered National Public Radio, which has an amazing amount of lively, thoughtful programming every day. My current favorite program is Lynne Rosetto Kasper’s The Splendid Table, which comes on Sunday mornings with tales of ice wine, chef school and Chinese New Year celebrations. Good stuff.
