Digital Preservation on NPR today



I heard on the radio coming to work that today's broadcast of the NPR radio show "Talk of the Nation" was going to feature the problem of digital preservation.  Here is the write-up from the website:
In the show's second hour, the talk turns to preserving digital information. How can we ensure that our images, sounds and writing will be accessible to future generations?

The second hour of the broadcast should be 3-4, EDT.  There is no indication on the web site of who will be interviewed.  "Talk of the Nation" shows are usually available in compressed format after the broadcast from <http://www.npr.org/programs/totn/>.
