We have a talk station across the hall, AM970 that’s run by a pretty awesome dude who takes chances that most radio won’t. His name is Rick Emerson and he’s on Mon-Fri 11am-3pm. His producer Sarah is also my co-host on The Punk Show. He did a great broadcast on 8.8.08, if you didn’t hear it, you can listen to it here.
He’s not your typical radio guy and the latest series he’s producing is awesome.
In last night’s episode I played Hanan and got to brain some boy-scout zombies alongside the rest of the cast. You can listen to it here.

I used to listen to Emerson religiously. In fact, I’m currently reading a book he recommended on his show. But, after awhile, I realized his humor was very unoriginal and incredibly mean-spirited.
But did you listen to the Zombie episode?? I find Rick to be very honest and although I don’t agree with all that he says, I guess I like that he says exactly what he thinks, regardless. That’s rare in radio these days.
No, I haven’t really listened in a couple of years. I tune in once in awhile when I’m free of such impenetrable forces as the walls and glass the 970 AM transmitter can’t break through and, within minutes, he’s badmouthing other shows, making fun of the trendhoppers he emulates and generally engaging in what I believe to be bad radio. I deal by choosing not to listen to it. I met him once and thought he was a little full of himself but I guess that’s kind of a prerequisite if you’re a talk show host.
I love zombies….totally jealous…damn you Wood!
