August 25, 2005 Previous | Next NPR: Driveway Moments Maybe you love NPR. Or maybe you find it a dull drone -- something to flip past on the car radio. Even if you're motoring in the second camp, Driveway Moments may lure you down the long, winding road of National Public Radio. Here are just a few reasons to tune in... Al Franken's racquetball smackdown with KISS bass player Gene Simmons. "My So-Called Lungs," in which 21-year-old Laura Rothenberg records her battle with cystic fibrosis. How "a freakin' potato" came into play in a minor league game between the Reading Phillies and the Williamsport Bills. Excerpts of the tapes Captain Mike Banks and his wife Mary sent each other during the Vietnam War. And, of course, the Santaland Diaries of Crumpet the Elf.
