The Colin McEnroe Show
Weekdays 1 PM, Saturdays 12 PM, available as a podcast
Public radio’s most eclectic, eccentric program.
Tackling subjects like Neanderthals, tambourines, handshakes, the Iliad, snacks, ringtones, punk rock, Occam’s razor — you get the idea. Plus, on Fridays, we convene an informal roundtable about the week in culture.
