WFIU’s schedule is changing this month, as we both move a few programs to accommodate the return of some familiar fare, and add some new shows we think you’ll love. Starting Monday, July 1, we’ll pick up Morning Edition at 5 a.m., and all our hourly newscasts will come from NPR. Beginning the weekend of July 6, we’re adding a number of programs to our Saturday afternoon lineup: a repeat airing of This American Life at noon, followed by Ask Me Another, Wits, and The Dinner Party Download. Sundays will change as well. At noon, you can hear a repeat airing of Wait Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me!, followed by two new shows, Fresh Air Weekend, and The Vinyl Café. Sundays will become the year-round destination for opera with World of Opera each Sunday evening at 6.

Ask Me Another is a new NPR show featuring puzzles, word games, and trivia played in front of a live audience in New York. Ask Me Another’s mélange of brainteasers is a descendant of Weekend Edition Sunday’s puzzle segment with Will Shortz, infused with the quick wit of Wait, Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me!. Listeners play along, testing their knowledge of history, geography, literature, grammar, spelling, pop culture and even mathematics along with the competitors called up to the stage. The host is comedian and storyteller Ophira Eisenberg, who guides listeners with witty banter aided by the comedic riffs and songs of house musician Jonathan Coulton. Continued on next page

Bloomington 103.7 fm • Columbus 100.7 fm • French Lick/West Baden 101.7 fm
Continued from previous page Each episode features an interview with a Very Important Puzzler—a notable actor, comedian, or author whose identity is revealed via puzzle clues throughout the show—who then takes a turn in the contestant’s chair facing trivia games written especially for him. Unafraid to do math on the radio, questions might include: “What is the total number of Brontë Sisters plus the total number of Marx Brothers?”
Wits host John Moe
Wits brings world-class comedians, actors, and musicians to the stage of the Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul, Minn., where host John Moe gives them and the audience the time of their lives. Both a throwback to the radio’s
golden age and also wholly modern, Wits mixes improvisation, sketch comedy, conversation, and music. Past guests have included Paula Poundstone, W. Kamau Bell, Patton Oswalt, Colin Hanks, Kathleen Edwards, Rufus Wainwright, and Ben Lee. The Dinner Party Download is a fast and funny hour of unconventional news, cuisine, and culture intended to help you dazzle your friends at this weekend’s dinner party. Hosts Rico Gagliano and Brendan Francis Newnam recently have welcomed writer Dan Savage, actors James Franco and Jessica Walter, and musicians Fitz and the Tantrums. Fresh Air Weekend is an anthology of Terry Gross’ best recent interviews. The Vinyl Café, from the CBC, is a Canadian cousin to A Prairie Home Companion, written and hosted by Stuart McLean. The name “Vinyl Café” refers both to the show’s musical content and the fictional record shop owned by McLean’s character Dave. A popular segment of the program is the “Dave and Morley Stories.” As written and read by McLean, they describe the misadventures of a fictional Toronto family consisting of Dave, his family, and several pets. Opera returns to Sunday evenings on WFIU when we welcome back World of Opera to our program lineup after an absence of several years. As we say goodbye to Saturday afternoons live at the Met, World of Opera becomes a consistent source of opera on WFIU for 52 weeks a year. The program’s host is Lisa Simeone.
World of Opera returns This month, World of Opera, hosted by Lisa Simeone, returns to WFIU after nearly a seven-year absence. Each Sunday from 6 to 10 p.m., World of Opera brings you compelling performances from top American and international opera companies. The series encompasses the seminal operas of centuries past as well as today’s masterpieces. This season highlights a sort of “season within a season”— four productions from one of opera’s most prestigious venues, London’s Royal Opera House. The historic theater at Covent Garden brings us Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin; Verdi’s enigmatic scorcher Don Carlo; Britten’s Gloriana, with its unflinching look at a fascinating moment in British history; and Rossini’s La Donna del Lago, with an all-star cast featuring soprano Joyce DiDonato and tenor Juan Diego Flórez. Other highlights include two more operas by Verdi, whose bicentennial birthday celebration is still in full swing: A Masked Ball, back at home in the much-censored drama’s original,

Why we’re replacing the BBC and the Met Though we’ve been paying a hefty fee that entitles us to unlimited BBC World Service programming, we have been using only an hour each weekday at 5 a.m., and two newscasts each weekday. A looming 30% cost increase in BBC fees caused us to rethink our use of the service. We decided it would be a better investment of our listener dollars to expand our commitment to our most expensive and most-listenedto program, Morning Edition. Replacing the BBC Newshour and the two weekday news updates also reinforces our commitment to be south-central Indiana’s primary source for news from NPR. BBC World Service programming will continue to represent one-third of our broadcast week on our digital-only WFIU2. The Metropolitan Opera, while offering world-class performances to public radio stations for free, poses challenges to stations and their audiences: The operas can begin and end at wildly different times, disrupting programming on either side; the Met forbids broadcasts outside of Saturday afternoons; and the program service is available for only half the year. Despite these challenges, we have chosen to stay committed to opera, the first time in memory investing listener dollars into opera programming. We hope you enjoy both opportunities you’ll now have to take in an opera each weekend: Sunday nights at 6 on the main channel, and Saturday afternoons at the familiar time of 1 on WFIU2.
Swedish setting, in a production from Stockholm; and his tense tragedy I Masnadieri, from one of opera’s most popular destinations, La Fenice, in Venice. Future productions include a work by another composer whose 200th birthday is being celebrated: Wagner’s The Flying Dutchman. Also, Rossini’s The Lady of the Lake and World of Opera host Lisa Simeone Handel’s Agrippina. World of Opera’s host Lisa Simeone has more than 25 years experience in radio and television, including stints on All Things Considered, Performance Today, Weekend Edition, and The Metropolitan Opera. World of Opera is produced by WDAV Classical Public Radio in Charlotte, North Carolina. July 2013 / Directions in Sound / Page 3

July 7 Oops You come up with a great idea. You devise a plan. You control for every imaginable variable. And once everything’s in place, the train hops your carefully laid tracks. In this episode, one psychologist’s zeal to safeguard national security may have created a terrorist, while one community’s efforts to protect an endangered bird had deadly consequences. And against all odds, a toxic lake spawns new life. July 14 The Good Show In this episode, a question that haunted Charles Darwin: If natural selection boils down to survival of the fittest, how do you explain why one creature might stick its neck out for another? Is altruism an aberration or just an elaborate guise for sneaky self-interest? Do we really live in a selfish, dog-eat-dog world? Or has evolution carved out a hidden code that rewards genuine cooperation? July 21 Parasites What’s gotten into you? In this hour, Radiolab uncovers a world full of parasites. Could parasites be the shadowy hands that pull the strings of life? We explore nature’s moochers, with tales of lethargic farmers, zombie cockroaches, and even mind-controlled humans. And we examine claims that some parasites may actually be good for you. July 28 Escape We kick things off with a true escape artist—a man who’s broken out of prison more times than anyone alive. Then, the ingeniously simple question that led Isaac Newton to an enormous intellectual breakthrough. Next, we find ourselves in a strange space at the edge of the solar system, about to cross a boundary beyond which we know nothing. Finally, we hear the story of a blind kid who freed himself from an unhappy childhood by climbing into the telephone system, and bending it to his will.

Selections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming. A weekly podcast of our featured classical recordings is available through our Web site, wfiu.org, under the “podcasts” link. July 1–7 Rossini: Complete Overtures 2 (Naxos 8.570934) Prague Sinfonia Orchestra Christian Benda, conductor This second volume of the complete overtures from Rossini’s operas includes his most famous work, the Overture to William Tell, as well as others more infrequently performed or heard—such as the charming overtures to Eduardo e Cristina and Il Signor Bruschino. July 8–14 Seraphic Fire (Seraphic Fire, Inc) Seraphic Fire Patrick Dupré Quigley, conductor
The choral ensemble Seraphic Fire tackles everything from Jewish and Russian Orthodox chant to the latest in contemporary music. Here they perform music from William Billings to the modern composer Ingram Marshall. July 15–21 Ghedini: Complete Music for Violin and Piano (Naxos 8.572828) Emy Bernecoli, violin Massimo Giuseppe Bianchi, piano The early 20th-century Italian composer Giorgio Federico Ghedini devised his own compositional style and guarded it jealousy against outside forces. That might be why his works are just now beginning to appear in collected anthologies and on concert programs and recordings as the world comes to accept his individuality. This new recording contains the only works for violin and piano in Ghedini’s catalog.
Farewell Talk of the Nation, Hello Here & Now NPR has announced that it is discontinuing the call-in show Talk of the Nation at the end of June. The program was heard on our digital-only second channel, WFIU2, Monday to Thursday from 2 to 4 p.m. In giving a reason for the cancellation, NPR executives said Robin Young public radio has a glut of vibrant call-in shows involving national issues, and that they sought a newsmagazine with a mix of interviews and prepared stories.

From lute songs to lively ensemble pieces, there is a great variety in instrumentation and moods. July 29–August4 Piano Phantoms (Sono Luminus DLS-92168) Michael Lewin, piano This new recording is a collection of piano pieces by a mixture of famous and lesserknown composers inspired by phantoms, goblins, ghosts, and the spirit world. The program includes eight world premiere recordings including a 19th-century arrangement of Schubert’s Spirit Dance by Stephen Heller.

Coinciding with the change, Here & Now will expand from one to two hours and add a coJeremy Hobson host: Jeremy Hobson, the former host of Marketplace Morning Report.

Robert Redford by Michael Feeney Callan Starts airing July 11 Among the most widely admired Hollywood stars of his generation, Robert Redford has appeared on stage and on screen, in front of and behind the camera, earning Academy, Golden Globe, and a multitude of other awards for acting, directing, and producing, and for his contributions to the arts. His Sundance Film Festival transformed the world of filmmaking; his films defined a generation. America has come to know him as the Sundance Kid, Bob Woodward, Johnny Hooker, Jay Gatsby, and Roy Hobbs. Now with this revelatory biography, we see the surprising and complex man beneath the Hollywood façade. From Redford’s personal papers— journals, script notes, correspondence— and hundreds of hours of taped interviews, Michael Feeney Callan brings the legendary star into focus. Here is his scattered family background and restless childhood, his rocky start in acting, the death of his son, his star-making relationship with director Sydney Pollack, the creation of Sundance, his political activism, his artistic successes and failures, his friendships and romances. This is a candid, surprising portrait of a man whose roles on screen (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, All the President’s Men, The Natural) and directorial acumen (Ordinary People, Quiz Show) have both defined and obscured one of the most celebrated, and, until now, least understood public figures of our time. Michael Feeney Callan has written biographies of Anthony Hopkins, Richard Harris, Julie Christie, and Sean Connery.

Congress has extended the popular IRA charitable rollover act until December 31, 2013. This lets you to make a tax-free gift from your IRA account to a charitable organization, such as WFIU, and avoid reporting your mandatory annual IRA pay-out as taxable income. You may contribute funds this way if: • You are age 70½ or older. • You transfer $100,000 or less. • You transfer the funds outright to one or more charities. Is this the right gift for you to make? Yes, if: • You do not need the income from your IRA, but must take your annual minimum distribution. • You do not itemize your charitable contributions—as the gift amount will be deducted from your taxable income. Q: I’ve already named WFIU as the beneficiary of my IRA. What are the benefits if I make a gift now instead of after my lifetime? A: By making a gift this year, you get the joy of watching your philanthropy take shape. Q: I have several retirement accounts. Does it matter which retirement account I use? A: Under the legislation, gifts can be made only from IRAs. Pension, profit sharing, 401(k), and 403(b)s, do not fall under this legislation. Q: Can my gift be used as my minimum required distribution? A: Yes. If you have not yet taken your minimum distribution, the charitable IRA rollover gift can satisfy all or part of that requirement. Q: What steps should I take to make a gift? A: Contact your IRA custodian for a form or contact the Office of Gift Planning at the IU Foundation (byeley@indiana.edu) for directions on how to initiate the transfer.
