January 2005

The Bad Man

Saturday, January 29, 2005

Steve Post, host of the No Show, recounts a story from his childhood about his father’s closest friend, one of the few adults in the world who Steve remembers with fondness. And we extend our treatment of the theme of The Bad Man in popular music. Be listening. It may not be our best show ever, but it is too good to miss. (Or at least we want you to think so if you do miss it). This program first aired April 2, 2005.


Boarding School

Saturday, January 22, 2005

You can cut the pathos with a knife as Steve Post recounts his two-year long childhood banishment by one of his wicked stepmothers to a boarding school of Dickensian quality “in the wilds of New Jersey when New Jersey still had wilds.” Music selections do not include “Teach Me Tonight,” because we have done that to death already. This program was first broadcast on March 6, 2004.


Cooking

Saturday, January 15, 2005

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. This is a previously owned program that first aired May 8, 2004.


Post's Pet Peeves

Saturday, January 08, 2005

This week Steve Post makes a full and frank confession of another of his grievous, if not mortal, sins: a form of acquisitiveness mixed with anticipatory buyer’s remorse. Plus another in the ongoing series, “Post’s Pet Peeves.” Be sure to have your umbrella turned upside down. This is a “previously-owned” program, first broadcast on January 24, 2004.


The Ledge

Saturday, January 01, 2005

In this encore performance of his story of "The Ledge," Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, relates a tale of derring-do and -don't which leaves him outside looking in. The music will inspire vertigo.
