Does anyone listen to This American Life?

[varkam]

This American Life is a weekly radio show on Chicago Public Radio and Public Radio International that is typically broken up into three "acts" that talk about stories on the same theme. This week the theme was "The Spokesman".

The reason why I'm posting here is because the first act of the show was about a woman, Rachel North, from North London who experienced the ing attacks in London and her experiences with both blogging about those experiences conspiracy theorists on that side of the pond. I highly recommend listening to it:

1. i've heard that one

it's fascinating. I really felt for her; imagine someone calling you a liar about having been in a terrorist attack

2. Not only that...

but the CTers began to fantabate about her being some sort of fabrication by a team of MI5 agents. Sounds eerily familiar.
