i was directing the very first programs npr produced.he very first all things considered, and what happened was the program would start, we would hear the theme, the newscast and i would be sitting there saying where is the tape? and there would be no tape. noah adams who was the cohost for many years once said that at the very early days you could count on the first piece being in the studio. that wasn't always true. but you had no idea what the next piece was going to be, not a clue and nobody knew. nobody had any idea what was going on after that. all the pieces were supposed to fit into like a puzzle all the right size but none of them were the right size. we would be handed a tape without any kind of a script to introduce it. what is this, who's on it, who wrote this? at the end of every day i was just a complete wet dishrag. [laughter] and it was really being produced or created by a very small number of t people. it wasn't like now where you have a huge network as well as all the member stations that contributed pieces. it was a s

[laughter] these women need no introduction but we have a terrific introduction for the archives for the future generations and that's who i would love to focus on today. i want to go back in time for people who may not know what it was like before these women were iconic and before npr was an iconic presence in the news media. before i do that, i want to say thank you to all archives because without archives, i would not have been able to write any of the books i've written, most people couldn't, she said herself she couldn't have and archives are invaluable, you cannot find anything on the internet and you can hear everything from the past even on npr so thank you to the women whose lives i invaded. this is an unauthorized book and i am delighted and honored you took the time to join me tonight with the upcoming anniversary of npr's 50

this is from an npr story in 2012. today new york farms generally hire undocumented workers rather than guest worker programs. this is not across the board, but the guest worker program is bureaucratic. it requires a lot of paperwork and you do have to pay people at a particular level. so many farms now have turned to undocumented workers. those populations are vulnerable. both populations in many ways have limited ability to advocate for their labor rights, and farms are able to use these populations in concert as they work and need their crops to be picked. some of the guest workers -- if i was a u.s. citizen, i could ask for more money. i could walk off the job any time i was ready, i could get an easier job. the department of labor says, look, this is all a strategy, again, to pay people less. the department of labor, quote, you and i know the reason you bring in jamaican and mexican workers is control. they're abused, they can't leave. don't push it under the rug. you know more than all of us. you see it every day

my husband was in the pentagon that day, a correspondent for npr. was at the state department for abc that day. tom and i had driven in that morning together right after the first plane hit. we started heading in immediately. just today, looking at the timeline again and when the plane hits, i remember bei on memorial bridge and i called my daughter who was in college. my son was in the fourth grade. so i immediately called my daughter. i told her to turn on the news. i went to the state department. tom went to the pentagon. the second plane hit. and then the state department was evacuated and there were fears that there was a bomb in the parking lot. there were so many rumors going around. i spent the entire day on the more you'll bridge. when the pentagon was hit, i put on my journalist hat because i couldn't think about tom. i'm not a huge worrier. i know it's a huge building. to see the smoke rise from the building all day and see the fighter jets going down the river, we had walkie-talkies because the cell phones down that day. hearing that the

i spoke with npr international correspondent jackie northam who was in islamabad.this period now, what do we know about how the pakistani government and now the taliban government in afghanistan are going to get along, are getting along? >> well, you know, the taliban and the pakistani government or the pakistani military and pakistan intelligence services have had a very long history together. there is some debate here about how much influence pakistan still has on the taliban right now. i spoke to several people in this area who had just actually one had just come back from kabul, he's a journalist. and he said that the taliban, they're seen as proxies in afghanistan right now to be seen as proxies of pakistan and they don't like it. in fact there's something that was a little joke about how they have a made in pakistan tag on their back and they don't like it at all. they want to separate themselves from that. but at the same time, they do have a close relationship. the head of the i.s.i., the intelligence service who was in afghanistan last week meeting with ta

the npr is putting it this way. a majority of independents now disapprove of his performance. it is bad news for biden and democrats. they are a key swing group. biden won in 2020 and they now think he is off track. 41% of u.s. adults including 82% of republicans strongly disapprove of the job biden is doing. similar to the unprecedented enmity shown toward president donald trump. we'll put up the numbers so you can soak them in. and just remind our viewers that independents helped get president biden into the white house and now those independents are having buyers remorse. >> the word in the npr poll you put up on screen. the two words that should jump out is off track. they believe the united states is off track. here is my word to independents. number one, this is the cost when we don't vet a presidential candidate. that election was about donald trump. it was a referendum. you either love or hate donald trump. unfortunately no one asked what is joe biden, what does he stand for? nor vetted him and asked what kind of leader he would be. number two i would encourage you to
