Up in the Air
On today’s show: We’ll look at the not-so-friendly skies—rising fares, airplanes that are losing their roofs and air traffic controllers snoozing on the job. We’ll learn about life at one of the country’s last fire lookouts. We’ll hear about the Belarus Free Theater’s production of “Being Harold Pinter.” And we'll talk about a new documentary about when and how we should forgive.
