Update:  Thanks to those of you who submitted questions and suggestions for Dan Grech’s interview with Radiolab host Jad Abumrad.

We were able to use several of your questions and suggestions.

Radiolab interview (Monday)-Dan Grech talks with Jad Abumrad about some of WLRN listeners’ favorite moments from Radiolab and about what topic Jad Abumrad is dying to cover on the show.

Radiolab interview (Sunday)-Dan Grech and Gretchen Beesing talk with Jad Abumrad about whether he and co-host Robert Krulwich ever fight and about how they’re just like cool velociraptors.

If you’re a die hard Radiolab fan, then you probably already know that Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich are bringing the live version of the show to Miami on Tuesday 1/31 and Wednesday 2/1. (Update: Tuesday show canceled. If you purchased tickets through Ticketmaster, they should be contacting you today about either getting a refund or switching to the Wednesday show.  If you purchased tickets at the Fillmore box office, you’ll need to return to the office with your tickets to either refund or exchange. )

If you’re a Radiolab fan, Dan Grech (Under the Sun co-creator and radio news director at WLRN Miami Herald News) would like to pick your brain on something.

He’s going to be doing an interview for WLRN Miami Herald News with Abumrad and Krulwich about their upcoming live show and their new weekly presence on our air.   Radiolab is the kind of show that you’ve either never heard of or you love. He’d love to know how people who love the show would describe it to people who’ve never heard of it.

So, if you’re game, please send the answers to the following questions to dgrech@miamiherald.org.  Please include “Radiolab interview” in the subject line.

1)  Favorite moment from a previous Radiolab episode – be specific!
2)  How you would explain to someone who’s never heard of the show why they should listen?
3)  What question they’d like me to ask Robert and Jad when I interview them on Wednesday?
