Almanac

For three seasons I’ve run a little hour-long radio show called Almanac, once a week. I usually pick a topic and choose songs, short stories and interview friends and others about that topic.  Then I put it all together.

Allow me to share the latest episode, a bit different fare than usual. I wrote a short fictional story as an opener to each song.

featuring music from Beirut, Andrew Bird, Ben Folds, The Solids, Bob Dylan, Denison Witmer, Elton John, Doveman, and Iron & Wine.

    Amanda Mae — girl, I’m going to sit right out here on the tailgate of the Element tonight and give a listen.

    I had the benefit of hearing this live-ish, through my very own internet connection. It’s good stuff…the girl has a bright future ahead.

    This is true, Mike was my only live listener, and very cheery about it too.

    Amanda Mae - just been listening to this and I have to say enjoyed it very much. I am more of a music guy, you ticked all of those boxes perfectly but I also enjoyed the words so much. You have a rather lovely delivery which is very gentle. Thank you.

    Phil

    Thank you for the kind words, Phil. It’s always encouraging to hear such nice things about something I care so much about.
