<p>You may have heard tell that <a href="http://thislife.org">This American Life</a> is producing a TV show. It&#8217;s premiering on Showtime in just a few weeks, on March 22 to be exact, but you can already check out the <a href="http://audio.thisamericanlife.org/tv/TEASER-Radio-20070216.mov">trailer</a>.  For those of us who don&#8217;t watch TV, it seems like it will most definately be worth Torrenting.  I just hope they don&#8217;t get too distracted from their radio making.</p>
