Going Postal

Saturday, July 30, 2005

Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, goes, well, “postal” over ill-designed products and becomes increasingly distraught during an interview with Dr. W. Felton Jones, Director of the federal Bureau of Revised Results. The music does nothing to calm him or you. (This program first aired May 7, 2005.)


Open Phone Lines

Saturday, July 23, 2005

There is so much going on in the world that Steve Post, host of The NO SHOW, hardly knows what to think. So he is opening up the phone lines to let his listeners set him straight. Be listening as Steve struggles to keep up.


Almost live from New York City!

Saturday, July 16, 2005

Almost live from New York City, it’s Steve Post with his special and frequent guest, Emily Levine, in a dialog on wines they have known and loved; pets they have known and, in some instances, loved; and the possibilities of interspecies, if not intraspecies, communications. Frank Millspaugh occasionally mumbles something elliptical. A good show. Probably the best thing on the air at this hour on this radio station. (This program was first broadcast April 24, 2004.)


Paul Krassner

Saturday, July 09, 2005

A special NO SHOW this week as Steve Post talks with Paul Krassner, a kind of counter-cultural renaissance man. Writer, publisher editor, activist, psychedelic explorer, and concert violinist, Krassner calls himself an investigative satirist. People Magazine calls him the father of the underground press. The FBI called him “a raving, unconfined nut.” The music will confirm the latter characterization.

This program was first broadcast on June 5, 2004.


Let the Fireworks Begin

Saturday, July 02, 2005

Let the July 4th fireworks begin. Steve Post blasts off with tales of his misspent youth (preceding his feckless adulthood). Listen as Steve ruminates on Independence Day, patriotism, death and taxes, and his ordnance of rockets, roman candles, and sparklers. Another fizzle of a No Show. The music ranges from Karl-Heinz Stockhausen to The Fugs (not such a leap, after all).
