Voices in my Head: The book on Guinness

I interned at Christian Science Monitor (in Boston) in 1992 right after the Television portion had been shut down. On my floor was CSM Radio; the next floor down was Television. None of the equipment or desks had been moved. Personal effects were still on the desks in some cases so it looked as though everyone -- probably about 75 or so people -- had just stepped out for lunch. Weird/sad feeling to see that, but it was a good lesson for a young college intern in the volatility of the television world. Now, I work in IT. ;)

As a fan of you and beer, I wanted to read the transcript of the Guinness interview but couldn't find it on the page link. Am I missing something?

Joe, there isn't a written transcript, there's the mp3 audio or there's the video player which is still just audio but with the book cover because sometimes clicking the mp3 link gives people's machines a hard time (it's a big file).

I used to try to type the transcripts out but it takes a really long time and part of the point of the Voices in my Head series is that I be able to produce it with not much more investment than the phone call itself.

I was disappointed as well to not find a "written" transcript...you may want to use a different word, as I've never heard of an "audio" transcript.

I can certainly understand you not wanting to type out the whole thing, though it's faster for me to read it than to listen to it...looks like you need an intern!
