Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Savage Love (Dan Savage's column) usually runs in free community entertainment papers (do you have New Times?).<br><br>Unless we got a short-wave radio, we can't listen NPR up here, but I've never heard of this show or these people; I feel culturally deprived and envious that Dan Savage has a radio show I can't hear!

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 The Onion now carries Savage Love too. <br><br><a href=http://avclub.theonion.com/savage.html target=new>http://avclub.theonion.com/savage.html</a> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Sun, the nice people who make This American Life put all of the shows on their site that bandawoman mentioned (www.thislife.org --sorry, I don't know how to make it a live link) so if you are willing to do a little searching in their archives you can listen to all of the Dan Savage pieces. Be sure to check out anything from David Sedaris too. <br><br>hu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Will do. I just browsed through transcripts of This American Life with David Sedaris, and decided to read and download one called "Who's Canadian." As a semi-legal alien in what Dan Savage called "that large country somewhere to the north of the United States," I'm still grappling with that question. Peter Jennings, William Shatner, and Neil Young are some of the more famous ones who "walk among us." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 I've not heard the show (NPR is one of the many things I miss!), but I did read an interview with Ira Glass and thought it might be interesting to you, since you're a fan. It's in the Utne Reader, Mar/Apr 2000 issue (pp.104-105). If you are interested, I could see if my sister has it and could scan and email it to you (or me and then you). She has a scanner and I don't. Hope I'm not treading over a boundary by offering, still getting a sense of the parameters of this community.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 Thanks, Laura.<br><br>You can offer anything you like here, as far as I can tell. Who recently said there are no rules?<br><br>I can get the Utne (I call it Chutne) article here, but I appreciate your very kind offer. I think Ira's a genius and I was lucky enough to hear him speak earlier this year, among my all-time favorite lectures, up there with Art Speigelman's three-panel opera work-in-progress/lecture and Robert Wilson, who for all his frigid staging and personal remove proved to be an amazingly warm and generous human being. <br><br>Please let us know how your class goes. I had a great time in Scotland last year, there for the tail end of the Edinburgh Festival then round the country travel. Never made it to the yoga studio, however, too busy gauking at castles and churches and looking for Nessie. What takes you there?<br><br>And now you know you don't have to be w/out NPR, as it's obvious you are hooked up. As well as all the regional public radio sites, www.npr.org will give you all you missed, including an archive of the Krishna Das interview a few months ago.<br><br>Happy listening!<br><br>B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
