Hi Denise, I have waded through the Radio National web site and found that if we go about it the right way, you can actually listen to previous programs over the net anyway. I have emailed them to find out whether or not is it possible to find out ahead of time what they are talking about for the day, and hope they respond...
In the meantime, it appears that the only way to do it is to go to the programming schedule for eadh and every single day... (time consuming.) Smile!
