關於本節目

Based on the wildly popular public radio show, This American Life explores a theme — fiascos, do-gooders, conventions, the job that takes over your life -- and transforms the stories into something funny or poignant, enlightening or bizarre. Boundary-pushing and adventurous, host Ira Glass crafts eclectic documentaries to capture contemporary culture with artistry and innovation. The show examines the details of life that go unnoticed — and tries to discern what they mean.
