Eighty Days, Tapping the Source, Flu Season

A vivid real-life re-creation of the race between pioneering journalists Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland and its aftermath, from its frenzied start to the nail-biting dash at its finish, Matthew Goodman’s Eighty Days is history with the heart of a great adventure novel. From behind the walls of Jules Verne’s Amiens estate, to the back alleys of Hong Kong, the grounds of a Ceylon tea plantation, through storm-tossed ocean crossings and mountains blocked by snowdrifts, we’ll visit exotic locales from London to Yokohama. A FREE screening of the international inspirational film Tapping the Source is available to our listeners and fans. Co-producer of the film and co-author of the book, Richard Greninger, joins Cynthia to talk about his career and the re-launch of the documentary. Flu season is not over yet! Even if you had the flu shot this season, it has only been effective on 62% of users. Heather Brittany offers up a few ways to keep yourself healthy that you may have overlooked.
