Miss De Mille and her rhapsodic take on The Human Gesture is but one of many significant sonic signatures I've recently discovered tucked away on PRX capable of tranforming the humdrum broadcast segue into a something that sings.

Trade in your weather reports and traffic updates (at least once a day) for these short, rich audio slivers: lovingly archived voices of muckrakers, peacemakers, artists and activists who tell us a little bit more about who they are in these wee moments, while revealing a more about who we all are, in the process. Curated, collected from various notable documentary series, and commentary, these work as fine and sure-to-be-surprising interstitial moments in the too often predictable radio landscape. Why thirst beside the fountain. Drop these in to refresh.
