"Do you folks have transcripts of shows available for purchase or on-line? I didn't see this available on the Web site. I don't a have a computer powerful enough to run Real Networks to listen to the show live or download a file to listen off-line, but I'd like to hear what some of the guest say. I also live in the Pacific Northwest, so by radio is out of the question. "
