Today on the Producer's Choice Show we're tacking a red hot subject; literacy. Can kids in America read? What's up with all these scary statistics that make it look like our kids can't? And does reading still matter, anyway? Or is it time to kiss reading goodbye? To answer these questions and more, your host Producer Jakob welcomes Drs. Johnny Lupinacci and Tim Slekar onto the show to check it out, dig in, and tell you what they believe in. So stay cool and don't be somebody's fool, because these righteous and bold guests are here to answer Jakob's big questions on THIS exciting episode of the Producer's Choice Show!
