Live from Los Angeles, CA with Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O'Donovan, Heather Masse, Christine DiGiallonardo Listen   This Week's Show Sara Watkins July 2, 2016 Sumus Quod Sumus This week: we’re at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California for our final broadcast of the season. It’s a duet singing show, with Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O’Donovan, Heather Masse, and Christine DiGiallonardo all along to join the host on time-honored American ballads, British Invasion romps, country-western weepers, and Broadway classics, guaranteed to send him off to radio retirement in style. Plus: our Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman, with L.A. tales and sound effects straight from rush hour on the 101; pianist and music director Richard Dworsky guides the band (Bernie Dresel on drums, bassist Larry Kohut, Richard Kriehn on mandolin and fiddle, and guitarist Chris Siebold) through surf melodies and sun-drenched rock’n’roll instrumentals; and one last update on the News from Lake Wobegon, the little town that time forgot, and the decades cannot improve. »Guest info & more SPONSOR Greetings for Garrison Every week Garrison reads greetings to the audience. Now, with his final broadcast as our host approaching, it’s your chance to turn the tables and send a greeting back to him!

February 4, 2016 Hello, With the advent of a host change you have the perfect opportunity to end the worst joke in radio (we listen to a LOT of radio) and get Duane's mother into therapy where she belongs. Possibly coupled with antidepressant medication. Please. Durango Radio Nerds Amy and Daniel Read More The View from Mrs. Sundberg's Window Bring it On June 30, 2016 Listened to the show Saturday and it was not bad. It was one of those crazy storm days, when the sun is shining bright and the wind is blowing hot and hard and the skies are full of billowy clouds and on the horizon there's a looming dark mass and you know all day it's coming in the evening hours and it does and my gosh it's beautiful. The Storms of Summer are right up there with the Storms of Winter and I love every one of them. I love the smell in the air, the changing colors of the sky, the roiling, the lightning, the crash of thunder and the inevitable torrents.
