Subject: MOTA: Good Night Radio Xmas show all night tonight! (Includes 
the San Francisco Mime Troupe's A Red Carol.)

Deadline to email your writing for tonight's (Friday night's) MOTA XMAS 
show is about 7pm. If you miss that, send it whenever it's done and I'll 
read it on the radio next week. There's always a next week.

Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio is every Friday, 9pm to 5am on 107.7fm 
KNYO-LP Fort Bragg as well as anywhere else via KNYO.org. Also the 
schedule is there for KNYO's many other even more terrific shows.

Any day or night you can go to https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com and 
hear last week's MOTA show. By Saturday night I'll put the recording of 
tonight's show there. And besides all that, there you'll find a 
collection of fun information to stuff yourself with until showtime, or 
any time, such as:

This is science. This shows a good way science should be taught. Kids 
are stimulated to think of how things work, and imagine what uses the 
knowledge can be put to. (via TYWKIWDBI) (In other news, they're 
planning to retire the International Space Station. And by retire, they 
mean apply a tiny amount of retro thrust and knock it down to 
disintegrate harmlessly over the sea.)

Here's another I like. He learns and adapts and guesses and changes 
course; it gets more and more interesting.

You want more like that? Here, look: measuring the tiniest forces.

And look up Sabine Hossenfelder's YouTube lecture series. And Physics 
Girl. And Vi Hart's math and music videos. Simone Giertz The Slo-Mo 
Guys... There's so much, so many great, quirky, enthusiastic teachers. 
Suggest someone I haven't mentioned, who you admire.
