PROGRAM 38: DO THE DADA MAMBO! [04.18.13]

Rakete bee bee, grouseketeers. Sorry it's taken me a week to post this. Show is also 30 minutes shorter than usual because of punctuality issues. Probably for the best. Mostly jazz, international sounds, and a little bit of easy listening. Enjoy yourself, if you survive the first ten minutes. Rakete bee zee.

PROGRAM 37: TALK ME OFF THE LEDGE, GROUSE [04.04.13]


I did two terrible shows in February that are possibly permanently stuck in the podcast queue (programs 35 and 36). They contributed to a general loss of élan for the show and for Radio CPR in the month of March. I quit the station, I re-imagined (but never implemented) the whole podcast, and then I unquit. I'm back. I'm still a mess, but EASGS is back and maybe not going away any time soon. Unless I get cranky again in May.
