Every program is recorded and goes to the internet page where listeners may download and listen to selected hours “on demand.” This past week, several amazingly informative and entertaining programs were broadcast on WAI and are mow available to you at no charge.

• UCA President Lu Hardin spent an hour with me Friday morning and we talked about the college and his vision for it at some length. He also had some revealing thoughts on how Arkansas’ high schools are doing at preparing students for the college experience. He also talks a bit about “No child Left Behind”

• Little Rock Mayor Jim Daily is leaving his options open for running again and confirmed that he is still supporting a change in the form of municipal government. He might use his final term as mayor to secure that transition. He was on Friday morning at about 9:30.

• Congressman Marion Berry was on about 11:30 Thursday and he had a lot to say. He unloaded on the Medicare prescription benefit law.

• Thursday (8/11) at about 8:30, Drew Pritt called in for another outstanding interview. He is the famous Democrat running for Lieutenant Governor. This was an informative piece but also very funny. Drew’s previous visit has logged well over 600 downloads, a WAI archive record!

• Laurie Taylor gave an update on her battle with the public school libraries in Fayetteville. It’s at 9:00 on August 10.

• Tuesday at 10, there was an AARP update on the Medicare prescription drug benefit. It is one hour and absolutely comprehensive discussion with the State Director, Maria Reynolds-Diaz and the Advocacy Consultant Mark Johnson.

• United States Senator Blanche Lincoln appeared Tuesday morning at 10.

• Democrat-Gazette columnist Mike Masterson was on Monday at 9 talking about the Janie Ward case. This is an outstanding interview and you will get a taste of why this is such a great story and why it is about to get national attention.
