I don't get it either. It sounds too inexpensive, too good to be true. I'm going to try and figure out what actual show on NPR I was listening to today. I think it was around 12:30. It was just starting to rain.
I got it. It's called the take-away and you can listen to the broadcast by
clicking here It's about 20 minutes in the program. It's called Tennessee Promise. They started it in 2008.
