programming notes
its a fact: the more i drink on saturday nights, the less stuttering on-air.

i bet youre wondering, does she have a drinking problem? thats debatable, but i must remind you, ive been unemployed for 3 months. just what exactly was i supposed to do with that time? something constructive? sheesh.

i tried to coax listeners into giving me their “what i did this summer” stories when they called to request, but no takers except for josh [of american altitude], who dropped me a line during the show to hear some handsome family.

“blood tree” has been occupying vital brain space this past week, and i often catch myself singing the chorus out loud.

the long lost features sara marcus [of persons, boys of now] and alice [of the vels] and they are so freaking good. the demos dont do their stuff justice. see them live, as they perform an amazing rendition of the raincoats “off duty trip”.
