My holiday gift to you is my holiday gift to myself. Last night I bought one of the sweetest shirts I’ve ever seen but there’s a bit of backstory required.
First, you need to check out THIS AMERICAN LIFE. Maybe you’ve seen the cable show but you should really listen to the radio program or podcast them like I do.
Second, you need to listen to this story (it runs about 14 minutes).
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
Now check out the shirt I bought by clicking on the TAL logo below. Don’t cheat. Listen to the whole story first before clicking below.
Jealous?
Lastly, this is public radio so they operate off the generosity of your donations and this year it’s easier than ever to support THIS AMERICAN LIFE. You can now text the word LIFE to the number 25383 and you’ll make a one-time donation of $5; it’ll show up on your mobile phone bill. After you send the text, you’ll need to reply YES to the confirmation and you’re done. If that story and shirt made you smile, why not do the right thing and show this great radio program a little Christmas love.
