nprfreshair: So some of the producers around here — when they haven’t been working on this show — have been working on another show. It’s called “Just You Wait”, it’s broadcast out of the WHYY station here in Philly and our/their producer Annmarie says this about it: Just You Wait is a new program which looks at new trends and ideas in pop culture, art, technology, entertainment and daily life. Our own John Sheehan is the host of the show, and for this pilot episode, John Myers reports on digital detoxing, Therese Madden tells us about a new way of buying art, Amy Salit gives her picks for some new music, and I talk about online TV programming in 2013, which includes new episodes of Arrested Development.  Give ‘em a listen if you can! gif via sherlander
