You should give it a shot - Herry Shearer has been on it quite a bit in the last few weeks - talking about the Simpsons, and other things hes doing. One of them is a show hes doing on NPR that I think any Simpsons fan would enjoy. Cindy
Are you talking about Le Show, or something else?

I honestly can't remember the name of the show - I've been trying to for a while. Its posible my NPR station just picked this up and thats why I didn't know of it till now. Has he been doing it long? I've hurd him give interviews on WAMC, doing Smithers and Mr. Burns, talking about his upcomming movie about the Folk Singers. Cindy
There's a whole section about le show on harryshearer.com - he's been doing it for years - but I don't think it's correct to say that NPR and PBS are one and the same (at least, it's on pbs where i am; it may not be everywhere), so he could be making special appearances on other shows to promote A Mighty Wind.
