For an hour every day, we're using the Internet to talk about the world. Bloggers in Kenya, podcasters in the US Army on the Iraqi border, legions of wikipedia editors: we're putting their voices on the air with the thinkers and writers who can help us make great conversation (and sense of the world). As we book our show, you're tracking our progress at radioopensource.org, telling us who to call next.

Pico Iyer: Channeling Graham Greene and the World Spirit
Author: Christopher Lydon
Fri, Feb 10, 2012
Pico Iyer-- my monitor on the global spirit in conversation and books -- hears voices: of the Dalai Lama, Henry David Thoreau, Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell among others. But the strongest dialog in Iyer's busy brain seems to run between Emerson and the late English novelist Graham Greene ...

Ha Jin’s recovered memory of Americans in China
Author: Christopher Lydon
Wed, Nov 30, 2011
Ha Jin's darkest fear about China is that the control-freak regime he fled 25 years ago has enough cash on hand to buy a lease on life -- in Washington and the West, at the expense of its people. The "myth" of an imperial rivalry with the US seems laughable to him...

David Grossman: looking for an end of “the situation”
Author: Christopher Lydon
Wed, Nov 16, 2011

Harold Bloom’s Moby-Dick
Author: Christopher Lydon
Fri, Nov 11, 2011
Harold Bloom is giving us a one-man performance of a one-act play. He invited us months ago to his class at Yale on Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick, and finally here it is and here we are. Because this is Harold Bloom on stage, himself the “living labyrinth” of literature, his jazz-like solo improvisation is endlessly allusive — to Lear (“81 years old, my age”), to Macbeth ...

My evening with Joan Didion
Author: Christopher Lydon
Tue, Nov 08, 2011
Joan Didion is reading from her second smashing meditation on death, Blue Nights. And I’m her interlocutor and foil again onstage in Cambridge. With a woman of the considered written word, not the spontaneous spoken word, it’s a tricky job.
