Jay Allison and Viki Merrick produce a weekly 4-hour “documentary DJ” program, part of APM’s mission to preserve time for non-mainstream radio documentary, a form of “conservation land” on the radio dial. Each week, the program offers a lively, eclectic, always interesting compilation of good work from a range of producers; featuring long-form work you’re not likely to hear anywhere else.

Arts & Ideas was one of the inspirations for APM’s co-creation of the Public Radio Exchange.
