Storyboard: Episode 2

from Wired Storyboard Audio Podcast Hosted by Wired.com

The Placebo Problem: Sugar Pills Are Getting More Effective and Drug Companies are Desperate to Know Why-- Senior Editor Nancy Miller hosts a conversation between articles editor Mark Robinson and Steve Silberman about pharmaceutical advertising, bedside manner and why Italian men find little blue pills so invigorating (hint: It has to do with scoring!). The Good Enough Revolution: Why Lo-Fi High Tech Will Rule the World-- If you’re still clinging to your vinyl record collection and complaining about the quality of MP3s, you’re in the minority. Nancy and Mark talk to Robert Capps about digital technology’s crappifying effect on almost everything—and why we’re better off this way.
