0:00.0	This is Speaking of Faith's Unheard Cuts. I'm Krista Tippett. You're listening to my
0:04.5	unedited conversation with Amy Sullivan, National Correspondent for Time magazine.
0:09.9	And since you're taking the time to listen to the entire interview, I'll give you a few
0:14.0	logistical details. I spoke to Amy Sullivan on September 11th, 2008, using a high-quality telephone
0:21.2	line. I was in the studios of American Public Media in St. Paul, Minnesota, and she was in
0:26.5	Washington, D.C. at the Headquarters of National Public Radio. This interview was included
0:31.6	in the first part of our series, The Faith Life of the Party, and originally podcast on October
0:37.4	2nd, 2008. Download the MP3 of the Produced Show, as well as Part 2 at speakingoffaith.org.
0:48.0	Okay, get your guests seated on my. Amy? Yes, hi, it's Krista.
0:54.8	Hi, Krista. How are you? Great. It's really good to have you out the other

1:21.9	They're going to show you how to do it.
1:30.0	Let me just keep talking, testing, testing. Sounds fine now, I think. Okay, I'm still hearing a
1:38.5	little bit. Do you hear it, Mitch? All right. Amy, do you have control of your headphone volume
1:43.3	there, or do I should I call? I have control here. Okay, great. It's quite a waste now.
1:50.3	It's quite a waste down. I still hear an echo around the edges. Let me just move back from the mic.
1:56.8	I think I can live with that. Are you, Mitch, can you live with it? Okay, all right.
2:02.7	Well, first of all, congratulations on all your success and great work and a great book.
2:07.9	Thank you. And do you have any questions of me before we start?
