While you were sleeping …

… or working, or disrobing because you signed an "Apprentice" contract a little too hastily, this blog has merrily been serving up plenty of great listening from the archives over the last week. Now's your chance to catch up.

• Tuesday: Memories of the Big Band era and the Watergate scandal from Leonard Garment, maybe the hippest guy in the Nixon Administration.
• Wednesday: A chat with William Gibson, the science fiction writer who saw cyberspace coming, but didn't get an email address for years.
• Thursday: Three (count 'em, three!)  interviews with Pulitzer Prize-winning author and columnist Dave Barry — one in which he suggested my boss fire me.
• Friday: An interview with one of the co-creators of "Sesame Street," Jeff Moss, recorded just months before his death.
• Other stuff you missed before that.

Next week: Understanding Understanding Comics.
