    Oh, is she the host? The article leads one to believe she is some sort of soccer expert.

    Nice! Hopefully I can tune in and listen. Make sure you give some stick to Wheat for being a Manc fan.

    I always do Adam, particularly since he is from Norwich. I guess it’s not just Americans that hop on the winning bandwagon. ;)

    M, my bad. It was late, I was tired and trying to get something up quick. You are right, I did not clarify and have gone back and edited that now. Thanks for calling that out.

    I think this will be a very interesting show and plan on tuning in. What I think I am most looking forward to is to hear what the callers in will have to say and ask.

    Have fun and enjoy the discussion.
    My conservative nature and character does not allow me to listen to NPR for fear I might go to hell ;-)
