RadioLoveFest

Last year’s inaugural RadioLoveFest was a resounding success, so it’s no surprise that WNYC is back for another residency at BAM. Drop in for live broadcasts of popular shows like Radiolab (Tuesday), Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me! (Thursday), and Death, Sex, & Money (Friday). Comedy, talks, musical performances, and film screenings supplement the program.

May 5-10, 7:30 p.m., 2015
