PRX Ponders Twinkie
Hi friend of PRX,
Bankrupt? Say it ain’t so, Twinkie! Times are tough for the sweet concoction that almost never goes stale.
Rising prices for the ingredients, at least the ones we know of, are being blamed in part for a possible second bankruptcy filing by Twinkie’s owners.
PRX, by contrast, is always fresh. Our ingredients are updated constantly — lots of new radio pieces show up daily. And, almost all of them are nutritious. Plus, we show you what’s inside every piece before you buy.
Who Is This Man?: The “I Have a Dream” speech may not have been heard if it weren’t for Bayard Rustin.
Explore the life and legacy of Mr. Rustin, a black, gay, Quaker who brought non-violent protest to the Civil Rights movement in America. (State of the Re:Union | 58:23)
Rethinking Religion – The Harlem Renaissance: Feel the music, spirituality, and politics of the 1920s Harlem Renaissance in this new special. Part 2 is coming Friday. (Jim Luce | 59:00)
Many more choices above and to the right under Timely Picks.
