Sunday, July 25, 2010 – 11:00am-12:30 Oklahoma Voices: 5th District Candidate Forum
The 5th District congressional race is the most crowded in Oklahoma's July 27 primary. KGOU recorded a candidate forum last week at the Francis Tuttle Technology Center with nine of the candidates. The two Democrats are Billy Coyle and Tom Guild. The seven Republicans are Kevin Calvey, Rick Flanigan, James Lankford, Shane Jett, Harry Johnson, Johnny Roy and Mike Thompson. The two Indpendent candidates, Clark Duffe and Dave White, automatically run on the November general election ballot, so they were not a part of this forum. Email news director Kurt Gwartney to let him know your opinion of this public affairs program.

Sunday, July 18, 2010 – Noon-1:00pm Southern Slices: Summer Institute Stories from CDS
Radio-making isn't just for professionals. Every summer, several dozen people from across the country converge on the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University to learn the skills of audio documentary work -- recording, shaping and crafting a piece, and mixing it on the computer. They get guidance and inspiration from seasoned producers. (They also tend to eat good barbecue and see a Durham Bulls baseball game.) This show pulls together seven of the best works made by those students -- many of them first-time producers. "Southern Slices" is hosted by CDS audio program director John Biewen.

The Arab world has the largest youth bulge on the planet. One-third of the region's inhabitants are between 15 and 24, and they're living in a pressure cooker of social, political, tribal, and religious forces. In the first of this special three-part series, we'll travel to several Arab countries to examine how globalization, Islam, and a turbulent region are shaping how teens and twenty-somethings look at themselves, and the world. "The Young and Restless" series is supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).
