In the listener questions section this week of Marketplace's "Make Me
Smart", at the 35m36s point, the hosts field a question about
Duverger's Law and 3rd parties. They admit that Duverger's is new to
them, but Kai Ryssdal does rattle off "first past the post" and talks
about ranked voting:

They also suggest that they may do a show on this in the near future.

Might be promising....

We need to all write in to them and make sure they don't just get a talking
head from the obvious mediocre election reform organization.
