Episode Twenty-Three



Ravi and Sonia welcome writer and humorist Christopher Monks to talk about "the incident" generated by his blog utterwonder.com

It's an episode that pulls out all the stops: The DriveTime Glovebox (aka "DriveTime Mailbox"), an Aussie tribute, a minor collision, the return of the Digital Cohost, the emergence of the DriveTime Censoring Board, the return of the DriveTime Reading Room -- and if that weren't enough -- a peek into next week's unprecedented DriveTime Event.

And evening hours in the studio reemerge for the first time since October.

Aussie Alert!



I've been informed by friends living "Down Under" that DriveTime will be featured on this week's episode of Beyond Tomorrow, the Australian science and technology program. It airs Wednesday night in Australia, which is who-knows-when in Boston (some time on Tuesday?!) I welcome any reviews from Australian residents.

Long-time DriveTime viewers will remember when Kim Watkins took a ride in Studio-A last November.

Update:
Read the official preview description on the Yahoo7 page (note the reference to the "ageing Audi").
