We’ve been doing these shows a couple times a month where we don’t book any guests, where we fill the hour with your calls. And your calls have been interesting and surprising and amusing. This hour, the conversation winds around to the R&B trio AKNU, calling everybody “guys” indiscriminately, force-field analysis, the writing of the U.S. Constitution, and the Bloomfield aquifer project.
There’s also a point in this show when Colin says, “No call is recherché,” which may be simultaneously the most and least public radio thing anyone’s ever said on our air.
