Thom Shankar is the co-author of Age of Danger: Keeping America Safe in an Era of New Superpowers, New Weapons, and New Threats. We also hear from journalist, filmmaker, and author Elizabeth Farnsworth about her novel, Last Light.

Prairie Journal is an opportunity to showcase high-profile, thought-provoking lectures, discussions and dialogues recorded throughout the region. There are so many fascinating people who come to this area, everyone from Supreme Court Justice Sonya Sotomayor to syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts. Prairie Journal is a great way to share some of those lectures with our listeners. We have also been able to expand the program to cover a broad range of topics, including the Kansas Sesquicentennial, the National Day of Listening and the Kansas Reads program sponsored by the State Library of Kansas, just to name a few.
