Weekend All Things Considered's 25th Anniversary

Published May 11, 2002 at 12:00 AM EDT

On Mother's Day weekend in 1977, NPR broadcast the first two hours of what would become one of the most popular weekend news and information shows in the nation -- Weekend All Things Considered. Listen to those first broadcasts and read about some of the important news that broke on "quiet" weekends in recent years.
