Neil Gaiman explains Freyja's chariot
Krys Boyd: Where do you think the Norsemen came up with cats pulling a chariot?
Neil Gaiman: I think that it's a gloriously godlike attribute, isn't it? I mean, anybody who's tried to get two or three cats to do anything at the same time will know that getting cats to pull a chariot...you'd have to be a god to make it work.

On Feb. 4, Krys Boyd sat down with Ryan Crocker, former U.S. ambassador to Iraq and Afghanistan; State Senator Don Huffines; and Jennifer Sime, senior vice president of U.S. programs for the International Rescue Committee to discuss the effects of refugees in North Texas. Listeners and members of our live audience joined the conversation by tweeting questions and comments to #ThinkRefugees.
Listen to the conversation here.
Tune into 90.1 FM tomorrow at noon to hear Brandon Castillo, Patrick Kennedy, and Vicki Meek talk with Krys Boyd about the history and future of Deep Ellum. From the Think website:
What can Deep Ellum’s history and stubborn counterculture teach us about building a livable city? We’ll take a ground-level look at the neighborhood this hour with three urban problem solvers: Patrick Kennedy of Space Between Design Studio; Vicki Meek, manager of the South Dallas Cultural Center; and Brandon Castillo, who runs the Deep Ellum Outdoor Market.

I just wanted to talk all yesterday about this. Here's the podcast.

Hour 1:
Could the way we talk about economics and politics actually be adding to the problem? We’ll explore the words we use to talk about these issues and more this hour with Anat Shenker-Osorio, an Oakland-based strategic communications consultant and author of the new book “Don’t Buy It: The Trouble with Talking Nonsense about the Economy” (PublicAffairs, 2012).
