DescriptionThe Bob Edwards Show is a one-hour daily radio program based on a simple idea: interesting people talking about interesting things. It's a radio program that talks with listeners, not at them. Radio that encourages people to think, not just regurgitate what talking heads think. Well-researched and highly-produced interviews form the core of the program. It introduces you to people and ideas that you will not see on morning TV or hear on your local morning zoo. And it lets them speak for more than the seven seconds you'll get on the all-news AM station in between visits to the Storm Center and traffic on the eights. Since its launch in October 2004, The Bob Edwards Show has featured interviews with hundreds of interesting guests - musicians, authors, journalists, scientists, presidents, and Nobel Peace Prize winners.
DescriptionBob talks to British journalist Jon Ronson about his new book, The Men Who Stare At Goats, a wickedly funny tour of the hush-hush fringes of military intelligence - from experiments in mind control, to cloaks of invisibility, to the ability to kill a goat just staring at it. Then, Bob talks with Joel Garreau, Cultural Revolution correspondent for the Washington Post, about his forthcoming book Radical Evolution . Garreau expects a cultural revolution to follow ever-advancing technology, and explores how living to 150 years, having implants that improve your memory, or having computers that pretty much do everything might change the nature of being. (Broadcast Date: May 26, 2005)…
DescriptionBob talks with filmmaker David Lynch about transcendental meditation and his new memoir, Catching the Big Fish: Meditation, Consciousness, and Creativity .

He explains how finding inner harmony helped him craft Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart and Twin Peaks .
