This American Life, a radio show hosted by Ira Glass on public radio, gave stories of people and institutions who are worried about what the world thinks of them, and who take action, decisive action on episode 294 8/5/05. In act one "Alex Blumberg tells the story of an audacious act of rebranding done by a group of people who aren't normally thought of as very audacious: public librarians. In Michigan, they've started staging rock concerts in libraries. The band that's been thrown into the experiment – The High Strung – couldn't be more perfect for the job. (22 minutes)" To listen to the audio show go to www.thislife.org
