Seeger Redux

Saturday, April 30, 2005

NO SHOW superhero Pete Seeger celebrates his 86th birthday next week, the occasion for an one-hour special featuring Pete’s songs and portions of an interview by Steve Post taped two years ago. Be prepared to sing along.


Sleep

Saturday, April 23, 2005

In a reversion to the mean, The NO SHOW this week forsakes the seriousness/lugubriousness of recent shows and returns to its roots: facetiousness. Steve Post takes on “depressive sleep,” and his lab assistant, Frank, extols the virtues of Daylight Saving Time. The music will help keep you awake.


Goodman

Saturday, April 16, 2005

More than four decades after the fact, new criminal charges have been brought in the murders of Andrew Goodman, James Cheney, and Mickey Schwerner, young civil rights workers in Mississippi. Steve Post talks with Dr. Carolyn Goodman, Andrew’s 89-year-old mother, about the coming trials, her participation, and the film she is producing on the matter. The music is of or about the civil rights movement.

Saturday, April 09, 2005

Steve Post steps out of character to memorialize the untimely death of his mother when he was a young boy.
