1:00PM - 2:00PMThis American Life
Hosted by Ira Glass
When he was a teenager, Haider worked in the Iraqi Ministry of Information. He was specially trained to talk to visiting dignitaries and foreign reporters, and he loved his job. It was exciting, and he was treated like a celebrity. Then the war broke out, his job disappeared, and Haider suddenly had to figure out what to do next: hide, like his father wanted, or jump into the fray. Plus, other stories about what happens when you strike out into the world.
2:00PM - 3:00PMThe Splendid Table

Today we are learning how to build a curry with award-winning teacher Raghavan Iyer author of 660 Curries. Jane and Michael Stern have found pecan pie worth the trip at the Texas Pie Company in Kyle, TX. Wine wit Joshua Wesson brings us wines for the picnic basket and we look the misunderstandings behind MSG with The New York Times' Julia Moskin.
3:00PM - 4:00PMTravel with Rick Steves

The beaches of Normandy hold the memories of the thousands who fought — and the many who died — to bring an end to Europe's Nazi tyranny in 1944. Rick explores options for visiting the sites connected with D-Day — a trip many Americans rate among the most moving of their lives — and fields listener calls and emails to help plan upcoming travels to Europe. There's another round of listener travel haiku, too.
4:00PM - 5:00PMWeekend All Things Considered
5:00PM - 7:00PMA Prairie Home Companion
Hosted by Garrison Keillor
We'll revisit two shows we did last May at the historic state theatre in Minneapolis. Wilco, the uber-cool Chicago-based alt-rock band was on to perform a few songs from their Grammy-nominated album "Sky Blue Sky". Texas troubadour Carrie Rodriguez was with us, Bluegrass songstress Becky Schlegel sang "Heartaches by the Number", and Cowboy Jack Clement sang an impromptu version of "Old Fashioned Drunk" that lingers in our collective memory like a Bourbon hangover. Also in the singing Cowboy genre, Lefty yodels about Keats and the blooms of spring in the Lives of the Cowboys. Plus, a lesson on wood ticks that can only be learned from an early summer visit to Lake Wobegon. So take the transistor radio with you out into the backyard this Saturday, plant those heirloom tomatoes, and enjoy a freshly cut springtime redux of two shows, with The Royal Academy of Radio Actors: Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Tom Keith, The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, and The News from Lake Wobegon.
7:00PM - 8:00PMJava Blend
Hosted by Ben Kieffer
Eastern Iowan Scott Cochran will perform his unique brand of original alt-country-rock. Joining Scott will be local guitar legend Steve Ellis, who has co-written many songs featured on their new CD CORNFED, released in January. Influenced by the sound of the late Gram Parsons' "cosmic American" blend of country, rock, and soul, Scott and Steve mix solid roots rock with old-fashioned American twang. For lack of a better label, Scott calls his music Genuine Cornfed Cosmic Iowa Roots Music.

6:00AM - 7:00AMJustice Talking
Hosted by Margot Adler
Defense Attorneys have been pioneering the use of brain scans to paint sympathetic portraits of their clients in the courtroom. Legal scholars say it's only a matter of time before neuroscience raises larger questions about guilt and innocence, even though scientists say the technology is only partially understood. Neuro Science and the law....

10:00AM - 11:00AMSpeaking of Faith
Hosted by Krista Tippett
The Spirituality of Addiction and Recovery; Alcoholics Anonymous co-founder Bill Wilson once said that the program he helped create is, "utter simplicity which encases a complete mystery."

Griffin reflects on the consonance of Buddhist teachings and the 12 Steps; Cheever tells her personal story and that of her father, the late fiction writer John Cheever.
