Our first episode of 2014 is the final installment in "the messed up episodes," a long string of mistake-prone shows that had something to do with something. As I write this, the insanity of holiday season has passed and I'm now more or less on a one-live-program-per-week schedule. My mental state is very different from what it must have been when I did this one. As with many shows between Thanksgiving and the first week of the new year, I find myself asking, "which one was this?"
Why, it was the broadcast featuring
Alvin Lives in Leeds, an underrated comp from which I didn't play nearly enough. So sorry, 14 Iced Bears! Love you guys. It's also the last transmission featuring the "Listening Parlour"--for a while. Getting songs out of Lady Catharsis is sometimes like pulling teeth. She is a reluctant DJ on a good day, and the days aren't always good. Anyway, she'll be back whenever she wants. We've still got some BIG THANGS to do.
