This I Believe: Be Cool to the Pizza Dude

English Professor Sarah Adams' simple life philosophy is to be cool to the pizza dude - for lots of reasons.  Among them:

Rather, the dudes sleep the sleep of the just."

Something to keep in mind if they forget your bread sticks...

Transom Multimedia

Transom offers up a new work, about a man struggling with obesity, which perhaps stretches the definition of what is an "audio" production.  I mean that only for the purposes of this site.  They actually call it multimedia but the sound rich production and de-emphasized and choppy (but brilliant) animation and the piece's aurally innovative, sound-driven nature does make this piece an audio doc to me.  Maybe.  At any rate, that's really neither here nor there.  It is really cool and it comes from Transom so, it gets posted.
