                <title>The Extension 720 with Milt Rosenberg Unabridged Podcast</title>
                <link>http://www.wgnradio.com/shows/ext720/?track=rss</link>
                <description>In the interviewers chair for over 30 years, Milt Rosenberg exemplifies utterly implausible radio. Whether the topic is foreign policy or American politics, the state of the English language, the history of World War II, the latest discoveries in astrophysics, what local chefs cook for their own dinners, or the guest is a Pulitzer or Nobel Prize winner, you won't hear anything, anywhere, quite as stimulating or quite as fascinating. Past guests of note include Margaret Thatcher, David McCullough, Henry Kissinger, David Mamet, Colin Powell, John Updike, William Safire, P.D. James, Richard Posner, Phillip Roth, Robert Bork, Gary Becker, William Bennett, Norman Mailer, George Will, Jim Lehrer and on and on--virtually a cast of thousands of interesting and significant people. It's no wonder Talkers Magazine cites him as the "Nation's leading author interviewer". Authors, journalists, scientists, newsmakers, professors, and even the occasional cab driver or waitress-all have sat across the table from Milt to opine on a wide array of topics. Among the panel discussions recently featured: Adventures in the cab (or PR firms, or the restaurant trade) recent developments (or historical perspectives) in law, sociology, film criticism, the talk trade itself and ad infinitum.</description>

<title>COMING SOON: New "Podcast Exclusive"</title>

    <description> As broadcasting technology changes,  Extension 720  is changing with it! 
 
 Talkers Magazine  predicts the audio future lies with podcast presentation, in both streaming and download form. 
 
We are already there--with a new feature called   Extension 720 Podcast Exclusive  . 
 
2 to 3 times a week, we will be recording discussions with important authors, political personages, journalists and a wide assortment of other interesting guests. 
 
These conversations will be up in podcast form on the  Extension 720  website and could be retrieved and listened to at your convenience. 
 
These podcasts do not replace our 2-hour, on-air programs; they augment them and add a new division to our broadcasting presence. 
 
Among the guests in the Podcast Exclusives to be available are: 
 
-Jim Lehrer: American journalist, PBS anchor and Presidential-Candidate Debate moderator 
 
-Arthur C. Brooks: author, social scientist and president of the American Enterprise Institute 
 
Important note: the  Extension 720 Podcast Exclusive  will be available through many audio formats. On your computer, of course--but also by iPhone, Android and 4G phones. 
 
To keep updated on the latest Exclusive Podcasts, all you have to do is check the Extension 720 webpage! (http://www.wgnradio.com/extension720) 
 
So--when you want your  Extension 720  fix, and we are no on the air that night--just go to the Podcast Exclusive feature for the latest program or for any of the many other archived files. They are available any time, day or night! 
 
Good listening!
