• The Wilkins Family
  We sat down with two members of the Wilkins family just before the new year. Our goal was to examine the different perspectives of two generations of African American leaders in advance of the inauguration. Roger Wilkins is a history professor in Virginia, a journalist, and a civil rights leader who was Lyndon Johnson’s Assistant Attorney General at the age of 33. His 25-year-old daughter Elizabeth was Barack Obama’s field director in Michigan. Mike Cuthbert talked with them about the president-elect’s campaign and his road to the White House, and what it meant to them personally. We’ll present the hour-long special Prime Time Radio conversation beginning next week. At that time, we’ll feature another video clip on the podcast, and link to the complete radio interview.

  Prime Time Radio will rebroadcast its popular holiday program this month – an hour-long special - featuring the bells of the National Cathedral’s Carillon.

• Studs Terkel
  “An author, radio host, actor, activist, and oral historian, Studs Terkel did have a single focus – to bring the voice of the common man or women into the public dialogue. Terkel died on October 31 at the age of 96, and he will be missed most of all by the radio community, who felt he was their patron saint. After all, he believed in the power of a single person’s story to represent history, and perhaps to change it. Mike Cuthbert interviewed Studs several times over the past decade. Here’s an excerpt from their last time together at Studs’ home in Chicago. More here: http://radioprimetime.org/specials/studs/studs.htm “

• Barack Obama Interview
  With the presidential race in its final days, Barack Obama speaks with Prime Time Radio's Mike Cuthbert about issues of interest to our audience. (Prime Time Radio has invited Sen. John McCain to join us for a similar interview. As of this writing, Sen. McCain has yet to respond.) This year's campaign is set against a backdrop of the greatest upheaval in world financial markets since the Great Depression. Falling home values, the plunging stock market, rising health costs, and disappearing retirement savings are all issues that effect older Americans disproportionately. In this exclusive interview, Senator Obama makes his “closing arguments,” updates us about his grandmother’s health, and suggests why voters over age 50 should choose him to lead the country. http://radioprimetime.org/specials/obama.htm
