Hi everyone,

Late last night I finished editing a podcast called Anatomy of a CNN Interview.

It's about my adventure on Wednesday going into Boston to do an interview with CNN. A CNN producer had called me earlier in the day wanting to talk to me about the digital divide implications of the new Mac Mini computer, Apple's first low-cost computer. I didn't expect to do an actual interview with them because they were hoping to do it in New York, so I went into a meeting for a couple of hours.

Coming out of the meeting I found a message from the producer asking me if I could be at a TV studio at 1:15pm; it was now almost 2pm. Frantically I called her up and asked if we could still do it; she said they'd rescheduled the studio time to 2:45pm. This gave me less than 45 minutes to get to Boston from suburban Newton -- on public transportation, no less.

Since I had my iPod with me, I decided to make an audio diary about the experience, from the painfully slow commuter train to getting lost in downtown to the interview itself. The podcast is a bit of a departure from my previous Internet radio programs in that it's a bit tongue-and-cheek, and it incorporates a lot of music remixes I made, courtesy of the Creative Commons/Wired Magazine music CD. All of the songs on the CD can be re-used for sampling purposes, so I took full advantage of it.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the new podcast. -ac
