Week-in-Review
Michael Kinsley, editor of the on-line magazine Slate, reviews the week's news.
Unlikely Bridge Player: Bill Gates
Microsoft Bill Gates made it to the finals of the American Contract Bridge League Summer Nationals, but he lost. Scott speaks with Paul Linxweiler, managing editor of the League's bridge bulletin.
Japanese Whaling Research
Scott talks with NPR's John Nielson about the controversy surrounding Japanese whaling research. Critics accuse Japan of using whaling research as an excuse to hunt whales, which are a popular delicacy. Japan argues that they have a right under international treaty to kill and study whales.
2004 Olympics - Athens
Scott talks with Ed Hula, editor of the independent electronic newsletter Around the Rings, about the problems Athens, Greece is having as it prepares to host the 2004 Olympic Games.
Hidden Cities
Host Jacki Lyden talks to travel writer Chris Elliott about airlines' efforts to crack down on fliers who buy tickets for "hidden cities." Some travelers are finding it cheaper to buy tickets for longer flights, and then get off in a connecting city, or to pay a lower round-trip fare for a one-way flight. Airlines say that's costing them money.
Why We're So Excited About J Balvin's 'El Tiny' Concert
An NPR series for Hispanic Heritage Month kicks off with a video from the Colombian reggaeton star. Here's why we think you'll love it, too.
<I>Reality Run</I>
A new reality show of sorts has come to the Internet. It's called Reality Run. The idea is to set someone loose on the streets of a major city wired with a microphone and very little money. It is then up to people listening to that live microphone over the 'net to pick up hints about where the person is. The first person who finds the man or woman with the mic wins $10,000. The first "Reality Run" was played in Berlin and will come to the United States soon. Noah talks with "Roger." He was on the run in Berlin until a young woman found him in a Berlin library yesterday. (5:00) The Internet address is http://realityrun.com/
Other Stories
A brief note on some of the other news on today's program.
Tiger's Latest Victory
Host Renee Montagne talks to commentator John Feinstein about Tiger Woods' victory yesterday in the PGA Championship.
Watergate Tapes
A team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology has developed a new technique to recover information from magnetic tapes and disks. Noah talks with David Pappas, who heads that team, about the possibility that this technique could be applied to blank portions of the Nixon White House tapes, analyzed during the Watergate scandal. Recovering voices, he says, would be a long shot. But it might be possible to tell whether the tapes had been erased.
