This one is all about dark carnivals, spooky sideshows, and creepy circuses. I'll read from Ray Bradbury and Katherine Dunn, and play music from XTC, Melanie Martinez, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and much more. Step right up... www.mixcloud.com/KOPN/late-wt...

Just saw Everything You Can See and wait…was it really beautiful? Like, gorgeous light and well composed close ups and stillness…I think it was lovely eye candy, but at the time my brain was busy with what was unfolding, so I wasn’t directly paying attention to that. Fantastic.

Please enjoy one minute of me being an enraged Minnesota turkey (reading a passage from A Turkey Has a Few Words to Say About Turduckens, by Nick Mickowski, from McSweeney's in 2013)

I am insane, and did my Edie McClurg impression, and I gobbled in rage at the end. 😂

Currently deciding what voice would seem juuuuuust right for a very angry turkey.

“I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I’ve come close to defining it: a lack of empathy.... Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.” — Dr. Gustave Gilbert, U.S. Military Chief Psychologist in the Nuremberg Trials, Nuremberg Diary

My Halloween episode will be up this weekend, and I read the incantation of the witches from the Scottish play - really went for it, going for full Miranda Richardson. Stay tuned!

I like ORDINARY PEOPLE and DON'T LOOK NOW as a double feature. Two movies advertised with family portraits in frames, starring Donald Sutherland as a father dealing with the traumatic drowning death of one of his children

You what is exciting? New LATE, the best late-night radio show featuring the best late-night radio hostess out there. Put your listening ears on and dig this, kids. You'll be glad you did. And if you get hooked, I won't tell anyone when you spend the next few weeks catching up with prior shows. 😉

Apparently the hot new rationalization in pissy right-wing creator circles as to why they're not as financially or culturally successful as they ought to be is that their IQs are all 30 points too high for the normies to understand their creations, and, oh, honey, I assure you, that's so not it

Mine are mostly things that aren’t outrageous $$, but out of reach for me: a perfect Vespa, sleeve tattoos on both arms from this fantastic local woman, I’d get my hair color-corrected and be all silver in the front, I’d buy every book I want to read, I’d buy paintings and photography from locals

If you hit the lottery….what would be the signs? For me it will be the cars. I would get all my dream cars.

The bigger idea stuff would be like, if I won the lottery I’d bring back alt newsweeklies. Fine if they are also online but they gotta be free and print first. Investigative journo, local arts, movie, & music listings all in one place, weird comix, etc. It’d be indie, smart, serious, fun
