Abilene
Saturday, May 29, 2004
Steve Post recounts a tale from his confused youth in which he follows his bliss to the promised land of women who don't treat you mean: Abilene. (How do you suppose it went for him?) Then he falls into an extended meditation on the Bad Man Theme in folk and popular music, and can’t get up. The music is better than usual, if that is saying anything. This is a previously owned radio program.
The Deep End
Saturday, May 22, 2004
Steve Post recounts how he once jumped off the deep end into a waterless pool and emerged in “The Nuthouse.” Perhaps you have had similar experiences. The music will drive you to distraction.
Your Worldly Riches, Please
Saturday, May 15, 2004
Swallow your ATM card and lock up your valuables. It is fundraising time at WNYC radio, and this time Steve Post is taking off the gloves and bare-knuckling his way to a new, personal worst. You will want to donate all your worldly riches just to make him stop whining and wheedling. But even that may not suffice when he gets to the point of piteous pleading. A sado-masochistic frolic not to be missed. The music will be equally pathetic.
Cooking
Saturday, May 08, 2004
Airs Saturdays at 4PM on 93.9 FM and Fridays at 7PM on AM 820
Steve Post cooks and lives to tell the story – a story that measures the short distance separating food preparation from self-immolation when Steve is involved. The music is delicious.
May Day
Saturday, May 01, 2004
Airs Saturdays at 4PM on 93.9 FM and Fridays at 7PM on AM 820
In honor of May Day's radical roots, Steve Post calls for the violent
overthrow of the government, the state, the economic system, WNYC's management, the consanguinal family group, and his producer. Then he takes nap. The music will kill you.
