笑过之后的思考－－我所听到的乔那森 古德丝汀
到今年秋天，我送老大上钢琴课进入第９个年头了，９年来每个星期二晚上，吃过晚饭，我们就去老师家，开车大约１０分钟。第一次听到乔那森 古德丝汀的节目，是３年前钢琴课后回家的路上。收音机里NPR正在播放古德丝汀 (Jonathan Goldstein) 的＂美国人，加拿大人 (Americans, Canadians)＂，记得到家后还没有播完，我们就把车停在车道上，坐在车里听完了才进家门。
从此爱上古德丝汀的Wiretap节目，只要有可能，周四晚上９点（东部时间）必听。古德丝汀的的文章幽默而不肤浅，谈古论今，用的是通俗易懂的语言。他先前的＂如此的美国生活 (This American Life)＂节目我也听过，但更喜欢WIRETAP。古德丝汀的风格近似英国的Clark Dickson，说的大都是大家关心的话题，他的语言简洁明了，用词精确幽默，文章以短文为主，许多家喻户晓的故事，从他的广播节目里听过来，往往不是你想象的老调重谈，比如说＂亚当和夏蛙 (Adam and Eve)＂， ＂龟兔赛跑 (The Tortoise and the Bunny)＂，等等。
古德丝汀的另一特点，就是用电波传递他的信息。他在加拿大广播电台的WIRETAP节目，通过NPR在美国播放，他最擅长的，是广播节目的编辑，你从WIRETAP听到他本人和其他人的对话时，感觉就像他在你的身边，跟你对话。

Biography
Goldstein was born to Buzz and Dina Goldstein in Brooklyn, New York, where he spent the first four years of his life before the family moved back to his mother's home town of Montreal.[2] The family settled just outside of Montreal in the suburb of Laval[3] where Goldstein grew up before attending McGill University[4] and later completing a master's program in creative writing at Concordia University (Montreal).[5] After graduation, Goldstein supported himself by working in the telemarketing industry for ten years, all the while continuing to write and attend readings.[6] In 2000, Goldstein's nascent career got a boost after he was selected to work on Ira Glass' popular radio program This American Life and he relocated to Chicago to work as a producer on the show. In 2002, Goldstein moved back to Montreal and started work on several projects for CBC Radio One including his own show, WireTap, which debuted in 2004.
Goldstein is a member of the Public Radio Exchange editorial board.
