Subject: Shmuel of the Hunt (or) My chivalric fiasco.

Here's the recording of last night's (2023-08-11) nearly-seven-hour-long

(CA) and KNYO.org:

THE SHOW: Expanded announcements. Poetry. Advice on reducing stress, 
avoiding a car crash, losing a sinister tail, choosing a cult, breeding 
royalty, etc. Items from Kareem Abdul Jabbar’s and the Comtesse 
DeSpair’s Morbid Fact Du Jour Newsletters. Lesser-known fairy tales. 
Eleanor Cooney’s dream of squalor. Chris Skyhawk on the perfidy of his 
imagined nemeses, Lee and Ted. John Pilger on how propaganda works. 
Tommy Wayne Kramer on the late, lamented art of conversation. All about 
EmJay Wilson’s first bully. Stories by David Herstle Jones, Clifford 
Allen Sanders, Mitch Clogg, Paul Modic, K.C. Meados of the Ukiah Daily 
Journal, Mark (The Major) Scaramella, Kent Wallace, Maizie Malone, 
Alexander Cockburn, Tommy Wayne Kramer, Manuel Vicent (translated by 
Louis Bedrock), and Ezekiel Krahlin. I read George Saunders’ short story 
My Chivalric Fiasco from his award-winning collection Tenth of December. 
(Get your own copy.) And, at the end,  a recorded first-person true 
story of an encounter with a Dero.

Email /your/ written work on any subject and I'll read it on the very 
next Memo of the Air.

Besides all that, at https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a 
fresh batch of dozens of links to worthwhile items I set aside for you 
while gathering the show together, such as:

Ink leaf boats. Try it. You need a ball-point pen, a leaf and a pan of 
water or milk.

Goodness gracious, great balls of fire, said the Queen, If I had them, 
I’d be King.
