Wordplay this week

We’ll be repeating last week’s show with Jonathan Williams. We’ve repeated shows before, usually when something’s gone haywire with the station’s automatic archiving system, and the show hasn’t uploaded properly to the server from which it streams and downloads. This week … well, Sebastian’s in Seattle, and I’ve been busy with Robert Bly’s performance last night and workshop today, and at show time Sunday, I’ll be recording Kay Byer, North Carolina’s Poet Laureate, giving a reading at the Asheville Art Museum. So.

The show we’ll be repeating features Jonathan’s May, 2005, reading from Jubilant Thicket at Sylva’s City Lights Books, and it probably won’t hurt anyone to hear it again. In fact, listen to those meta-fours again, and see if they aren’t even better the second time around. The man could be subtle and very very dry, after all.

Production notes are over at NatureS.

The upside: we’ve got what looks to be a good recording of Bly’s fine, plugged-in performance with Free Planet Radio Friday night, and a half- hour interview from Saturday afternoon as well.

Back next week with a new show, promise.

Update: Oh, yeah: if you ever want to get in touch with the Wordplay team, just drop us a note at wordplayradio@gmail.com
