Just listened to this myself, and, while it was for the general listener, there was more focus on search than I'd expected. I thought it was a suprisingly good interview.

One point that MM made in several different ways was Google's interest in "context rather than keywords."

Also, regard Books and also Google Scholar, there was a listener question re whether Google might offer a subscription model to permit full access to this material, and MM suggested that "Google would like nothing better" (this is something I've thought for years).

The program itself was on a KQED-produced program called "Forum," and the Forum archives are where eventually one should look for the link. Unfortunately, the KQED website has a terrible practice of not immediately providing a permanent location for its podcast links... so the initial url may change at the end of the week.
