www.thisamericanlife.org
Each week This American Life has a theme. This group is to illustrate photographically their Theme of the Week. Themes run 7 days from the Monday following the radio broadcast (California time zone).
You must include the week's theme in the title or description and tag your photos TALTOTW. Submissions not including these will not be approved for the group. All efforts that relate to the theme are welcome, even if you think to yourself "my snapshot that fits the theme isn't that great", we still want to see it.
Your photos don't have to be made only during the week's theme, photos from days past are also welcome.
You may post up to two photos per week on the current theme.
NOTE: Any submissions may be published in the This American Life newsletter and listener photo archive. You will be notified via Flickr if your photo is selected:

"This American Life is a weekly public radio show broadcast on more than 500 stations to about 1.7 million listeners. It is produced by Chicago Public Media, distributed by Public Radio International, and has won all of the major broadcasting awards. It is also often the most popular podcast in the country, with more than a half million people downloading each week. From 2006-2008, we produced a television version of This American Life on the Showtime network, which won three Emmys and is now re-airing on Current TV. We're also the co-producers, with NPR News, of the economics podcast and blog Planet Money. And a half dozen stories from the radio show are being developed into films.
The radio show and TV show follow the same format. There’s a theme to each episode, and a variety of stories on that theme. It’s mostly true stories of everyday people, though not always. There’s lots more to the show, but it’s sort of hard to describe. Probably the best way to understand the show is to start at our favorites page, though we do have longer guides to our radio show and our TV show. If you want to dive into the hundreds of episodes we’ve done over the years, there’s an archive of all our old radio shows and listings for all our TV episodes, too."
