It's the first Tuesday of the month, and the Computer Guys are back!

And of course, they'll answer your questions about software & hardware for Macs and PCs.

Across the globe, nations honor workers on May 1st. But "May Day" is not celebrated in the United States, even though it was originally inspired by striking Chicago workers in 1886. Kojo gets a lesson in American labor history.

Fiction fans may know Barbara Kingsolver for best-sellers like "Animal Dreams" and "The Poisonwood Bible". But she's also a trained biologist, dedicated to understanding the human relationship with our environment. She joins Kojo to reflect on the year her family vowed to eat only locally-produced food, and ended up learning a lot about flowering peanut plants, turkey mating, and themselves.
Barbara Kingsolver, author, "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life" (Harper Collins)
