Marketplace

Week of September 21

Marketplace (PM)

  • Molly Wood hosts Marketplace PM all week.
  • Molly talks with Liz Weil, ProPublica climate change reporter, about the tools we have to prevent deadly mega-fires, and why we aren’t using them.
  • If you’re hosting a learning pod in your home – a few kids, a teacher or full-time tutor — your homeowners insurance may not cover you. That could be a problem if someone gets hurt or sick in your home. And if your home is not zoned for a business, you may need professional liability coverage. A couple weeks into the school year, Marketplace’s Erika Beras looks at how learning pods are shaping up.

Marketplace Tech

  • September 21: As millions of students are asked to learn from home, there’s been an enrollment spike in for-profit virtual schools. We speak with Jennifer King Rice, a professor of education at the University of Maryland.

Classical

Performance Today

September 23: Performance Today will broadcast a performance from the Taiwan Music Academy and Festival, the first large ensemble concert since the pandemic started. Listeners will hear an interview with Taiwanese-American violinist Cho-Liang Lin about the quarantining and careful measures 35 musicians took to play an in-person concert in front of an in-person audience of 2,000 people. 

SymphonyCast

UPDATE: Now that the BBC Proms have announced their plans for 2020, SymphonyCast plans to air 3 programs this year. BBC Proms concerts will be featured on SymphonyCast for the September 14, 21 and 28 episodes.  View the updated July-September program listings here for more details.
