Jim Russell Remembers His Time On All Things Considered

MICHELE NORRIS, host:

Today is the 40th birthday of ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. And to mark this occasion, we've asked the former hosts of this program to share some of their memories.

JIM RUSSELL: Hi, my name is Jim Russell. I hosted ATC in 1972. NPR once sent me on a trip around the United States to ride the scariest roller coasters. You're listening to ATC from NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
