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

[Marco McClean]

Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio, 9pm to 5am tonight (Friday, Jan. 10) 
on 107.7fm KNYO Fort Bragg (and 105.1fm KMEC Ukiah, and via KNYO.org), 
live from KNYO's shop at 325 N. Franklin, next door to the Tip Top bar.

I think Kylie Felicich and Alice Williams will be coming by tonight so 
we can have a quick meeting, on the air, to set up production of their 
brand-new soon-to-be-live radio drama /The Thief Lord/, coming in a week 
or two to a radio station near you (KNYO or KMEC), which I am thrilled 
about --/thrilled/, I tell you. If they don't make it, it's okay; I know 
they're busy. Eleanor Cooney will be calling around 10pm to say more 
about her latest earthshaking tour-de-force that rips the lid off the 
American war in Iraq... That's what I know so far. And I have more 
material on other subjects (science, literature, poetry, current and 
historical events, etc.) to read to you tonight than I have ever brought 
to read before, so there's no danger of dead air, except if there's 
electronic or psychic sabotage by the minions of Satan, but there's very 
little to be done about that; they're everywhere and more powerful and 
mischievous than ever, since the Grays and the Lizard People abandoned 
Earth (and us), dammit. Especially the Lizards; while they were here 
they gave us vacuum tube technology, still used in the finest of theater 
sound systems, and some (limited) protection from Earth-orbit-crossing 
asteroids, and chocolate cheese (yum!), and all they asked for in return 
was just the standard respect you'd give any alien overlords, and we 
treated them like unwelcome relatives from the wrong side of the family, 
and I'm sorry. The Grays I could take or leave; they just stood around 
disguised as lightbulb-shaped things and opened and closed their giant 
all-black eyes. Maybe they were doing something good and not making a 
fuss about it so we didn't notice. I dunno.

Deadline to /email/ your writing to be read on the air tonight is 6pm or 
so. If you're not done by then, send it whenever and I'll get it when I 
get home from the radio station tomorrow morning and then read it on the 
air next week, see above. Or phone tonight and read your work in your 
own voice: 962-3022. If it's busy or just rings and rings, there are 
reasons for that; try again in ten minutes or so.

Anyway, here are a few simple educational amusements to bobble before 
your eyes and ears until showtime:

Italian Spiderman. Bella ciao, criminals.

The Mandalorian as a spaghetti western. /Oo-eeyoo-eeyoo. Wah-WAAA-wah./

And thousands of pulp magazines from the '30s, '40s and '50s to choose 
from, to download and read on your computer, tablet or phone. It's all free.
