The No Show
-
125th Street in Harlem (WNYC/flickr)The Winner
The election is over, and Steve Post is here to remind us that triumphalism is always in bad taste: therefore, it is perfect for The NO SHOW. Steve’s guests – Emily Levine, Paul Krassner, and Marshall Efron – attempt to prevent him from slipping into “post-partisan depression” and strive to plum the existential depths of meaning which the Obama victory portends. The music will get you up on your feet and dancing; well, up on your feet, anyway.
