The recording of last night's Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show on
KNYO-LP Fort Bragg and KMEC-LP Ukiah is available by one or two clicks,
depending on whether you want to listen to it now or download it and keep
it for later and, speaking of which, it's right here:

It was a circus last night. Hank Sims and Jenny came in. That's /the/ Hank
Sims of Lost Coast Outpost, providing real, old-fashioned small-town
journalism but on the web. Al Nunez (say NOON-yez) came and reluctantly
accepted the money help everybody gave this week to get him over this rough
patch, and he was persuaded to sit down and talk for a little while, and if
you've been following his saga on the MCN listserv I'm sure you'll be glad
to hear it from his own mouth here. Kay Rudin called a couple of times to
talk about the Big Band event coming to Lauren's in Boonvile /next/
Saturday night, and I only hung up on her once. Alex Bosworth called from
Arkansas, as promised, to give the skinny, the lowdown, the poop, etc., on
Thorgellen, the ancient pagan festival of blood and fire in honor of Thor,
which Memo of the Air celebrates every year and has done since 1997,
including the Airing of Grievances and the solemn playing of William S.
Burroughs' /A Thanksgiving Prayer/, hands and knees and heads bowed down.
Thomas showed up to explain the financial term /derivatives/ in a way even
/I/ could understand. Blues legend Lucky Otis called from Los Angeles. And
people who didn't even want to be on the air kept coming in and going out.
I didn't really get to start reading the material I brought to read until
way after midnight. I have work tonight, so I’m not going into any detail
here but, let’s see… If you want to hear the part where Al Nunez is there,
you can skip directly to about an hour and eight minutes in. Oh, and Thomas
heard me say something about a hamburger, so, just like about three years
ago, he came back later with a hand-cooked cheeseburger on toast, with
bacon, lettuce, tomato and a thick slice of onion in it. Oh, my god.
Perfect. There's your Thorgellen feast, right there.

Besides all that, at http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you can find a fresh
batch of dozens of links to not necessarily radio-useful but nonetheless
worthwhile educational items I set aside for you while gathering the show
together. Such as:

"A Jew coup." Ahem. The last line of this lunatic right-wing evangelical
Christian preacher radio/teevee star’s delusional rant is the money shot
for this sort of thing. Stay for it. It’s not that long. I wonder what
happens when somebody, just on the street, tells him and his crazy cult
friends that his Jesus Christ is a Jew. Or asks him to think of a single
instance in all of history where what he's paranoid about actually
happened: the Jews getting in power and slaughtering and killing all the
Christians.

'Scuse me while I kiss this guy. Bow-bow-bow ba-da BWARR, ba-da BWARR.

And a man with a really good video camera in his hat, with great stereo
sound, just wanders around Osaka for an hour in the middle of the night,
and it seems like a really night place. Very different from the anime shows
I’ve seen where rocket-powered motorcyclists have sword fights and battle
terrifying ghost bears from the other world. Nothing like that at all in
real life. Use your good headphones.
