Human Relations

Saturday, February 28, 2004

Steve Post engages in mass media-related activities this week with the No Show's embedded political correspondent, Emily Levine, and holds forth on one of his indefensible but passionately held views on human relations (which, to summarize, are impossible and undesirable). The music reaches for the obscure and occasionally attains its goal.


Your Money or Your Life!

Saturday, February 21, 2004

Things get down to serious business on the occasion of WNYC's winter membership drive. Important issues are at stake, and Steve Post will not let you forget it this time. Reflect on the many nanoseconds of pleasure you have received from The No Show. Consider the possibly OK times to be had in the future. Marvel at Steve's ability to say, "Your money or your life!" in seventy-two languages including Sanskrit (in which the phrase first appears). Listeners are advised to emulate the Colonel Pepper of ballad fame in his decision to "stand and deliver." Be listening. It's in your own best interests. The music selections this week are particularly predictable.


Hearts and Flowers

Saturday, February 14, 2004

It's all hearts and flowers on the No Show as Mr. Romantic himself, Steve Post, exposes the true story of the historical Valentine and his questionable behavior. Warning: this program is not intended for mature audiences and may contain material unsuitable for adults. In addition, the music may induce swooning.


Alan Lomax

Saturday, February 07, 2004

This week Steve Post reprises his appreciation of the life and work of Alan Lomax and presents an overview of his contributions to American and world folk music.
