Live from Baghdad and points west

News & Record reporter Allison Perkins has been spending some time in Iraq. This week she and I had three telephone conversations on her trip, which was primarily to report on a Greensboro-based Marine unit now stationed west of Baghdad. The audio files from our telephone conversations are now up, both as streaming audio and as podcasts for download, here.

I wasn't exactly prepared to be the person talking with Allison, so I didn't have a list of questions to ask her and was pretty much just winging it.

The sharp-eyed (or sharp-eared) among you also will notice that the quality of the production ain't the greatest. (Herb Everett is our resident News podcast expert, but he has been on vacation this week.) That's OK; I think what you'll hear will whet your appetite for the stories, photos and video Allison will begin filing this weekend from Kuwait.
