Ho-ho-ho!

Saturday, December 25, 2004

As you would expect, Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, is brimming with good cheer in this holiday season. Hear Steve go “Ho-ho-ho.” Listen to his parsing of the secret meaning of “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.” (Clue: “SANTA” is an anagram of “SATAN.”) Marvel at Steve's effrontery as he attempts to sing-along. The music will go down best with eggnog.


Martha Behind Bars

Saturday, December 18, 2004

Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, is preoccupied with the predicament of his role model, Martha Stewart, and muses upon her life behind bars, her efforts at rehabilitation, and her prospects for renewed success. The music will force you into solitary confinement.


Profane Mysteries of the Human Body

Saturday, December 11, 2004

In a special for all fans of gastrointestinal medical case studies, Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, regales us with tales of his 22 years of repeated hospitalization. Count the number of euphemisms Steve employs in describing his digestive malfunctions. Ponder the profane mysteries of the human body. Consider tuning to QXR for the opera. Go out for a walk. The music selections are gripping.


A Brush with the Famous

Saturday, December 04, 2004

Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, reflects on his brush with the famous in his recollections of two encounters in the 1960’s with “Blind Boy Grunt.” Cringe as Steve tells his anonymous but universally acclaimed guest at the time, “You’ll never make it in this business.” Share Steve’s nanosecond of social importance as his spouse bestows a precious belonging on that same personage. Or better yet, just listen to the music.
