Merge Records defies everything you’ve heard about the music
business. Started by two twenty-year-old musicians, Merge is a lesson in how
to make and market great music on a human scale. The fact that the company
is prospering in a failing industry is something of a miracle. In
celebration of their twentieth anniversary, founders Mac and Laura offer
first-person accounts—with the help of their colleagues and Merge artists—of
their work, their lives, and the culture of making music. Tonight at 6PM.

Reading fiction to escape reality is a great way to unwind, but
exploring reality can sometimes be even more rewarding. These books aren’t
about fictional characters or locales. They don’t happen in a far away land
or make believe place. They are stories of our world, of our journeys, of
reality and our perception of it. We’ll be reading books that range from
botany to black holes and, trust me, it’s stranger than fiction. This
month’s book is Blessed Unrest by Paul Hawken.
