Though Fresh Air has been categorized as a “talk show,” it hardly fits the mold. Its 1994 Peabody Award citation credits Fresh Air with “probing questions, revelatory interviews and unusual insights.” And a variety of top publications count Gross among the country’s leading interviewers. The show gives interviews as much time as needed, and complements them with comments from well-known critics and commentators. You can find information about today’s program and a complete archive on Fresh Air’s website.

Fresh Air is produced at WHYY-FM in Philadelphia and broadcast nationally by NPR.
