as for his fine news site: https://LostCoastOutpost.com

And thanks go to the Anderson Valley Advertiser, which provided well 
over an hour of the above 8-hour show's most locally relevant material, 
as usual, without asking for anything in return. Just $25 a year for 
full access to all articles and features, and you can too. While you're 
feeling generous, go to KNYO.org, click on the big red heart and give 
what you can. And email me your writing and I'll read it on the very 
next Memo of the Air.

An extended science-fiction book review by David Herstle Jones of 
ThinkInTheMorning.com. Andrew Scully called to read his take on the race 
for Mendocino County sheriff. The latest installment of Kent Wallace’s 
adventures teaching New Jersey-accent English to beach-town Vietnamese 
children. Poetry both neurotypical and neuro-atypical. A discussion of 
the problems of a religious organization running a modern hospital 
according to an interpretation of the Old Testament no more and no less 
bizarre than anyone else’s, with x-rays and labs and needles and sterile 
stainless-steel scalpels and things but messaging and records services 
apparently provided by a sort of clockwork landline Chinese whispers 
technology. In short: science, superstition, variously angry and goofy 
asides on Our Horrible World, our percussive, cordite-scented, 
ketchup-splashed world. And so on and so forth, until: Scott Peterson in 
his own voice on the subject of razing Mendocino, including campaign 
literature pronoun-count analysis, over a bed of slide guitar faint and 
tinny in the background, as if from a transistor radio in the garage 
next door, adding a certain je ne sais quoi… au moins pour moi. Je n’ai 
pas beaucoup de vocabulaire, pour vous dire la vérité.

BESIDES ALL THAT, at https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a 
fresh batch of dozens of links to not necessarily radio-useful but 
nonetheless worthwhile items I set aside for you while gathering the 
show together. Such as:

Happy Vivaldian marimbists. So happy. You need this.
