4:00pm Living On Earth

6:30pm CounterSpin Did Barack Obama's National Defense University speech
signal a sea change in White House terrorism policy? That depended on who was doing the listening. For most corporate media, Obama made a sharp turn,
speaking of more limited drone killing policies, and discussing the closure of
the Guantanamo detention camp. But many civil liberties and international law
experts heard something very different. We'll talk with Pardiss Kebree-aye of
the Center for Constitutional Rights.
Also. the internet has either destroyed the traditional
media business or it's brought us a new era of vibrant, more democratic media.
Those are the two sides in the debate over the web, but author and professor Bob
McChesney argues in his new book "Digital Disconnect" that to understand the
internet you have to understand capitalism. He'll join us to explain.

a third of college students in the United States are first-generation—meaning
their parents and grandparents didn’t go. For many of these students, entering
academia can feel like moving to a foreign land. Lee Ward (James Madison
University), author of First Generation College Students, says colleges
should embrace these students. Also featured: Most writing teachers
correct nonstandard sentences like “My brother and me drives the same truck.”
But Amy Clark (University of Virginia’s College at Wise) believes

Amy is coeditor of a new book, called “Talking Appalachian: Voice,
Identity, and Community.”

collecting data about citizens' daily communications. Is there any privacy
left? Does it matter? There's outrage from our Left, and
Schadenfreude from our Right. What is worse -- U.S. surveillance of our online
movements, or Google and Facebook monitoring our behavior? Does it amount to a
totalitarian society? President Obama begins a two-day summit with the
president of China, Xi Jinping. How much can we object to China's own
procedures?

complete, and imagination makes us more knowledgeable.
11:00am New Dimensions The Power of Stories
to Heal (repeat) We may be coming to
the point where our ability to save or destroy ourselves largely depends on the

U.S. attorney for Wikileaks and Julian Assange.
Also, are parents keeping their kids from learning how to read, so
they can get a disability check from the state? The claim has come from some

in front of live audiences at various locations nationwide, 'Says You!'

all it takes to get kids excited about science is a bag full of
eyeballs. Robert Tai (University of Virginia) has spent years
studying when and why kids fall in love with science. Henry Alan Rowe
(Norfolk State University) uses fire and static electricity to draw
students into chemistry. Plus: Science class matters even for kids
who grow up to be writers or bankers. Tina Grotzer (Harvard

what’s going on around them.

Awakening. We'll also hear from Daft Punks Random Access Memories. It's a dance

4:00pm Inside Europe From
Deutsche Welle Radio, this weekly program provides listeners with the
latest developments in Europe as a network of staff and freelance
correspondents look beyond the headlines to provide analysis, background
and color to make the European story relevant for American listeners.
5:00pm On the Media with
Bob Garfield and Brooke Gladstone. We delve into the details of the government surveillance
program and what we really know about how PRISM works. And, as more information
comes out about leaker Edward Snowden, the media turns from the value of his
leaks to the value of his character.
6:30pm Left, Right & Center Matt Miller (Washington Post) moderates from the Center. On
the Left, Robert Scheer (Editor-in-Chief, TruthDig-dot-com). Rich Lowry (National
Review, author of “Lincoln Unbound”) is on the Right. The Obama
administration confirmed that Syria has used chemical weapons and announced the
US will send arms to rebel fighters. The move went along with former President
Clinton's recent warnings that Obama risked looking like “a total fool” if
he behaved too cautiously in the region. The administration's plan drew
criticism from both sides, including James
Traub of Foreign Policy. Then, is Edward Snowden a laudable whistleblower
or a threat to our security? Matt
Miller believes the latter. It all depends on your position on the
newly-coined Scheer O'Meter. Immigration reform finally hits the Senate. And
Rich Lowry's new book, “Lincoln Unbound,” finally hits the shelves.

10:00am Radiolab Animal Minds When we gaze into the eyes of a wild animal, or even a beloved pet, can we ever really know what they might be thinking? Is it naive to assume they're experiencing something close to human emotions? Or is it ridiculous to assume that they AREN'T feeling something like that? We get the story of a rescued whale that may have found a way to say thanks, ask whether dogs feel guilt, and wonder if a successful predator may have fallen in love with a photographer.
11:00am Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me Callers,

6:30pm With Good Reason with Sarah McConnell The Kids Are Alright Have
more children, don’t stress out about parenting, and spend less time on
activities that you and your children don’t enjoy. This is the advice of Bryan
Caplan (George Mason University) author of the new book “Selfish
Reasons to Have More Kids: Why Being a Great Parent is Less Work and More Fun
Than You Think.” And: Children love borrowing books from the library.
They also love playing with toys. So why don’t we have toy libraries? Julie
Ozanne (Virginia Tech) studies toy libraries in Europe and New Zealand and
found that toy libraries offer multiple benefits for children, their parents,
and their communities. Later in the show: Historians have long held
that children of 17th and 18th century Europe were thought of as
incomplete adults who were not yet worthy of love or compassion. But
historian Michael Galgano (James Madison University) says children of
this time were actually celebrated and loved. Also featured: Elementary
school teachers may want to encourage a noisier classroom this fall. Adam
Winsler’s (George Mason University) recent research shows that
5-year-olds perform better on motor tasks when they talk to themselves out loud
than when they are silent. And: Infants come into the world equipped
with an enormous capacity to trust, which is essential to rapid learning. Vikran
Jaswal (University of Virginia) says part of the challenge of childhood is
learning when to question.

with extended family over dinner. He’s the author of “Why Can’t We Talk?
Christian Wisdom on Dialogue as a Habit of the Heart.”
