Probably.
Even though the topic is the Rebel-Yankee Test, I wonder if we'll get a chance to hear some Russian spoken with a Southern drawl.

My wife taught ESL to Hispanic kids in Eastern Oregon during the '90s. My wife is a native Tennessean with a strong southern accent.
I believe some years in the future there will be folks studying the phenomenon of southern accented English speaking Hispanics in the Pacific Northwest! "Howdy, ma name is Ju wan, y'all."
Will be tuned in for the good Doctor.

I tried that, but I got this message:HEY! Try listening on the 'Net in real time!

Now use your magical wand for a translation.Não é possível executar o arquivo porque não há suporte para o protocolo especificado. Se você digitou uma URL na caixa de diálogo Abrir URL, tente abrir o arquivo usando um protocolo de transporte diferente (por exemplo, "http:" ou "rtsp:").

Yes, the broadcast will be available on the website. In fact, it would seem that the page it will be linked to will contain a broadened report on the website. I think the audio files are put up the day after the broadcast. Just click the Morning Edition link on the NPR.org website or the link we will surely have on the Rebel-Yankee page of our website.

Just a guess here, but would the short translation be "It doesn't work"?
[wave wand]Exatamente!
Brazilian dude
It is not possible to execute the archive because it does not have support for the specified protocol. If you it typed a URL in the box of dialogue To open URL, tries to open the archive using a protocol of different transport (for example, "HTTP:" or "rtsp:").
[/wave wand]
Perhaps you browser needs the protocol in addition to the URL?

In this case, it's number three:
"ftp://" tells your browser to use the file transfer protocol
"http://" tells your browser to use the hypertext transport protocol.Quick definitions (protocol)
noun: code of correct conduct (Example: "Safety protocols")
noun: forms of ceremony and etiquette observed by diplomats and heads of state
noun: (computer science) rules determining the format and transmission of data
"ftp://" tells your browser to use the file transfer protocol

BD, when were you getting the error message?
Although you didn't specifically state this, I bet you were getting the error when you clicked the button , and that you simply clicked the first link to listen to the show, which is the Real Player audio link.
Try this link instead, which streams through Windows Media Player:
Morning Edition for Monday, June 19

[Edit: Of course, now that I've posted the link, I see that it is for a specific story that is not Dr GW's... I will update when that is available.]
