One Read Program
Our topic on Monday was Columbia’s One Read book, “The Air We Breathe” by Andrea Barrett. In studio guests included Brad Lookingbill of Columbia College, Darwin and Axie Hindman and Lisa Saffran director of MU’s Masters in Public Health Program. It was a great discussion and Reuben said that he had a lot of fun hosting it. You can tell when the host enjoys the topic and it was enjoyable to have Darwin and Axie Hindman as guests. That was pretty cool to have the major and his wife as our guests. I took photos during the taping as well so we have photos to use for the website, which has finally been updated with our staff bios. We really need to get the archived shows on there so we can point to what the show looks like to our future guests.
This Monday’s show is on Human Trafficking. I had a real world view of what producing a show is really like. One of my guests for that show backed down, but he is still able to call in. This will help with the show for sure, but we only have two guests. I had a lead on another guest, who I have been calling and emailing without response. It’s annoying for sure, but even with two guests and several call-ins, it will provide for a good show.
