Radio Update

Sneaking in on a Sunday night because I have radio links!
#1 on the list is Jian Ghomeshi's interview with Pharrell Williams on Q – forget his silly hat and links with pop music if you can, there is some seriously good stuff in this interview, and is one of the most inspiring things I've heard in a long time.
In other Q news, IT'S ON IN L.A. NOW! Everyone in LA, you don't know how rich you have become; Mon-Thurs 10pm on KPCC, some of the best arts and culture interviews you're likely to hear anywhere, mind-expanding and horizon-broadening, also a great place to find new music. I don't know why KPCC doesn't air it on Fridays, especially as Friday is when they usually have musical acts perform live and then get interviewed, but 80% of Q is better than no Q at all.
Speaking of which, I feel I should mark the occasion of my getting completely up-to-date with Q podcasts – I had 21 hours' worth backed up but have laid it all to rest now, just in time for a new episode to arrive tomorrow. There would probably be a lot more links to interesting segments, but thanks to the binge it's all just a delicious porridge in my head, so you are spared. Good show, do listen, though one episode a day is probably better than six.
Another notable radio thing is Michael's Essay on The Sunday Edition about Godwin's Law and Crimea – the link will take you to a write-up, but I think the audio (which you can find on that page) is a little more involved.
That's it from me this week – now I've caught up on Q I can get back to my regularly scheduled programming of The Long Long Trail on repeat. Tally-ho, yippity-yap, and zing-zang spillip!
