The American radio show This American Life has a segment on Poland this week.

http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/453/nemeses

The show's theme is "Nemeses" and is about people on opposite sides of an issue who start to come together ... and end up further apart than when they started.

The show is (obviously) about the all too brief almost national reconciliation after the Smolensk catastrophe and how things went sour so quickly and so thoroughly.

All things considered the show is very fair, they use the old Poland A and Poland B talking point as a departure point for describing the initial split and take both seriously, describing the good (and bad) of both in a pretty even handed manner.

Definitely one of the better reports on Poland in the American media that I've heard.

An mp3 of the broadcast can be downloaded for free through Sunday.
