Hello all... Your foot will be tapping along and you might find yourself trying to keep from singing as we travel back to 2013 for a classic show featuring acoustic groove masters Väsen, minimal Motown singers (and drummer) Chic Gamine, and mandolin wizard Chris Thile, plus The Guy’s All-Star Shoe Band, The Royal Academy of Radio Actors, and the latest News from Lake Wobegon … honey, could you ask for more? Highlights include Chris Thile joining Richard Dworsky on “Ridin’ the River Home” as Richard’s solo project, All in Due Time, is featured on the show; Chris pokes fun at himself in script form and then dazzles on the mandolin on Presto from Sonata No. 1 in g minor; “Paper Moon” and “All Night” from Chic Gamine; “Flippen” and “Pulska for Tom Morrow” from Väsen; plus visits from Guy Noir and Dusty and Lefty and some of the last Rhubarb of the season. All in all, it’s a pretty good show and we hope you join us for a listen. www.prairiehome.org/shows/44103.html

September 21, 2013
GK: Chris Thile is with us, a recent recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship, the so-called genius award, the award you cannot apply for, it is bestowed on you like in a fairy tale, buckets of money for five years to squander any way you want and there are no requirements at all.
Chris is the fourth person I've known who got the MacArthur Fellowship and for the other three it was the beginning of the end, they sank into chronic depression and drug dependency and now they're living in group homes and trying to learn rudimentary social skills and learn how to take public transportation and have service-sector jobs and get their lives back on track, so I certainly wish Chris the very best. You look older, I must say. Older and tired.
CT: I am feeling fantastic. I've never felt better. Since I won the genius award, I learned Mandarin Chinese in two weeks. I'm golfing in the low 70s. I'm able to do the Saturday New York Times crossword in about 20 minutes. And ----- would you mind if I talked about sexual potency?
GK: You look drawn somehow, sallow, your color isn't good, you have some sort of a tremor.....
CT: You know, I was playing Bach's Mass in B Minor on the mandolin the other day and it suddenly occurred to me what Einstein meant about mass and energy being two forms of the same thing and I came up with a grand unified theory of the mandolin ---- it's a string theory ---- can I tell you about it? It only takes about fifteen minutes.
GK: You look tired. Take care of yourself, Chris. We're worried about you. Welcome to the show.

OK, I'm tuned in, though 2 - 3 minutes behind, which I may adjust a bit. Thanks for the link dw!
It turns out I did not travel to NC for MerleFest after all, as we need to go visit the family in just under 2 weeks, and I can tolerate only so many X-country trips in 2 - 3 weeks.

Hi Jay!
I can't do the Saturday NY Times Xword puzzle in 30 minutes, though I can do the Sunday one in 30 - 45 minutes.
Maybe I'll move up a minute or two to synch with you - are you at the rightnumber of minutes?

Bummer I keep to the Sunny Side - the next MerleFest is only 7 months away, at the end of April 2022, the normal time, which got rearranged due to Covid. And the line-up was not the best, except I really wanted to see Tommy Emmaanuel. Oh Mavis Staples! She's at MerleFest now.

I can look on the Sunny Side of that too. My body has gone downhill since I got sick at age 24. I got ole young. But here I am still - I thought I would be long dead by now.

I'm still on the road to recovery, gradually building up endurance. An old fart can have a very successful surgery, but it's an older fart who heals up.

Yeah, best not to dwell on "old(e)" as there is nothing to be done about it.
Well, actually you guys are in Florida so you can go on down to Miami for discount plastic surgery, though I wouldn't recommend it.
Persistent Problems? Have we abandoned Life's Persistent Questions?

So that means 40 hours of stories?! Nope, total of 20 hrs of stories. Can hop back and forth between tracks, play what you miss later, repeat as often as you like for 2 weeks.

I learned today that you can have your own fat cells injected into your "private part" to make it bigger.... I was amazed!
