Unsettling news about Joe Frank. Listen to the guy's projects for 30+ years and you come to feel a certain attachment. Or affection even.

I saw Therese's Comments post: "Holy Crap", even before Irwin made it official by announcing Ken's announcement. I'll never forget that particular chill either.

Hadfield's recording is even more impressive considering that microgravity does weird things to your voice - spit doesn't drain, your tongue doesn't naturally rest at the bottom of your mouth, vocal chords behave differently, etc.

I'm sure Chris Hadfield would care, in that "Carrot Top is a human being too" sort of way.

Joe got an anonymous $5K donation for his med bills. Now above $25K.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 4:04pm
Alison Porchnik:

Which doesn't mean there's no need to support him. They had already been eating into their savings before all of this happened. (And everyone knows how much radio producers and artists make.) Hopefully they'll go way above the goal.

The goal is $40K. They're a long way.

Joe's site currently says 25K raised of a 55K goal. I'd guess that many potential supporters haven't even heard of his current circumstances yet. I'd love to see him get 100%.

In all seriousness, I remember quite clearly the first time I heard "Hunky Dory". It was New Year's eve, back in the 70s. My friend next door came over, and we stole some of my dad's liquor.

Listener Robert:

Dale, I remember the 1st time the EAS was used in this metro area was the early 1990s for a storm that wasn't so severe, just a lot of rain, & not even a real lot at that. They waited until the USSR dissolved to use it so people wouldn't freak out, then they used it apparently because they could. And they didn't use it 9/11/01.
  4:52pm
Listener Robert:

Then they instituted those color codes for alertness, & then they totally mindfucked me by instituting the totally unrelated Amber Alert, which I assumed to be part of the color coding because amber's a color. Then they added the Silver Alerts on the hwys., and now I might as well be color blind.
  4:55pm
Listener Robert:

NYC never made it out of Orange status -- not because of our Dutch hx, but for terror reasons, while the rest of the country slipped into Yellow, until eventually they just discontinued the whole thing except on the cartoons.
