Gary Knell, President and CEO of Sesame Workshop was on KERA’s Talk Show (later changed to Think with Krys Boyd) today at noon.
I only caught the tail-end of the program, but it sounded like an interesting show on one of my favorite shows growing up.
You should be able to catch a podcast of the show online.

A UT student got the chance to play onstage with U2 in Dallas Saturday night. Lucky.
Playing quarterback for your favorite team. Rocking out with your favorite band. These are the dreams that fill a teenage boy’s heart.
Sunjay Devarajan, 19, traded sunglasses with Bono after joining U2 on guitar Saturday.
Of course, most boys don’t think they’ll ever actually realize those fantasies. But as 19-year-old Sunjay Devarajan strapped on a guitar next to Bono, The Edge and the rest of U2 on Saturday night in front of 20,000 screaming fans at American Airlines Center, his teen dream took life right before his eyes.
“This is like a Make-a-Wish Foundation kind of dream,” said Arlington native Sunjay, a day after Bono plucked him from the crowd to play the band’s “Angel of Harlem.” “I’m just so thrilled that they gave me that opportunity. That they were adventurous enough to actually pick somebody that they had no idea who he was from the audience and have him play guitar.”
DJ RX pokes fun at Bush and other politicians with his mashups.
RX combed through videotapes to build the bogus phrases he needed to have the president “sing” songs like U2’s antiwar anthem “Sunday Bloody Sunday.”
