Ira Glass, the 59-year-old host of the popular radio show “This American Life”, speaks to a packed auditorium at the Phillips Center on Saturday. The speech was titled “Seven Things I’ve Learned,” and was made up of lessons Glass found meaningful throughout his 40 years of broadcasting. These included segments on how to tell a story, how to interview children and learning from failure. Glass took seven questions from the audience at the end of his speech.
