[Kzyxtalk] Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio all night long!

Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio all night long!

Tonight, Friday the 13th of December, from 9pm to 5am, the last waning 
full moon of the decade, I'm reading Memo of the Air by live remote from 
Juanita's apartment, /not/ from the back room of the KNYO performance 
space at 325 N. Franklin, next door to the Tip Top bar, so consider 
showing-and-telling in person at KNYO /next/ week, Friday December 20, 
because that's when I'll be there.

Deadline to get your writing on tonight's show is about 7pm. If that 
comes too soon for you, send it whenever it's ready and I'll read it on 
next weeks' show.

Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio is every Friday, 9pm to 5am on 107.7fm 
KNYO-LP Fort Bragg, and 105.1fm KMEC-LP Ukiah. Also there and anywhere 
else via http://knyo.org and click on Listen.

And at any time of the day or night you can go to 
https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com and hear last week's show, and shows 
before that. By Saturday night, the recording of tonight's MOTA will 
also be there, in the latest post, right on top.

Also as usual you'll find plenty of leftover historical/educational 
wonders at the weblog to foof around with while you wait for tonight, 
such as:

Juanita and I saw this guy at the Sonoma County Fair a couple of years 
ago. A sea of empty seats. Bad time of day, late in the run of the fair, 
audience of about six tired grownups, two kinetic small children and a 
baby in a shoulder-bag. But Sourdough Slim still brought the magic, the 
W.C. Fields-ish panache, and gave it his all. A total professional. He 
didn't teach us how to yodel, though, like he does here:

And then last week I saw this cartoon and I thought, it's a lot like 
KZYX, except better for the workers in the cartoon because at KZYX the 
airpeople aren't even being paid anything at all but a pat on the head, 
while the handful of people in the office are snarfling $300,000 a year 
out of the station into their own personal gloveboxes. And anyone who 
speaks critically of this, or of any other part of the operation of the 
NPR-colonized station, is kicked off the air and banned for life from 
doing a show there, because you can't use the public airwaves if you 
won't drink the cult's kool-aid. They spill out hundreds of thousands of 
dollars of tax-derived Corporation for Public Broadcasting grant money 
for themselves and for all the canned crap from a thousand miles away; 
what are /local/ airpeople, chopped liver?
