Back in December 2014, comedian Cait Harris and performance artist Ivan Cheng recorded their works for the x-mas show on Eastside Radio 89.7fm. Cait Harris is a Sydney based performer and writer of plays, films and short stories. Her stories can be found in the ebook The Sturgeon General Recommends Cait Harris with Momentum Publishing and she can be seen performing on ABC 2’s new series Storyclub in January 2015. Every so often Cait can also be seen performing at the comedy venue Giant Dwarf on Cleveland Street, Redfern. In the comedy skit recorded for our show, Cait plays a radio presenter who after numerous unsuccessful relationships falls in love with a cockatoo. Ivan Cheng is an Australian artist whose practice focuses on the damage in interpreting notation. As well as collaborative projects, he has shown conceptual performance work in Europe, North America, and Australia. Having studied at the Royal Academy of Music and Sydney Conservatorium of Music, he is developing scores which relate to formalism and history across cultural form, interested in the temporal act of reading and sight-reading. For our show, Ivan performs the text titled Duksy River, Disky River, Dusky Rivet. The text-score is followed by an experimental version of Silent Night composed by Ivan in collaboration with Polish-American sound artist Derek Piotr as the first track of a hypothetical Christmas album. For more about Ivan and his future work see ivancheng.com MUSIC TRACKS played during the show: 1) Nina Simon, I Wish I Knew (How It Would Feel To Be Free) from ‘Live in Montreux 1976′ album 2) Tape Five, A Cool Cat In Town (feat.

Load up that truck, folks, cuz this week the fellas discuss the 1995 compilation album The Best of Bluegrass: 50 All-Time Greatest Hits. And, tell you what, these songs are some HITS. We’ve got the Beverly Hillbillies Theme. We've got "Rocky Top." We’ve got a song about a mystical clock. But most of all, we pay homage to the Jefts family’s favorite impressionist (he does Elvis). Bile ‘Em Cabbage Down and come on!
This week, Jeremy Garber from Powells Books joins Chad and Brian to discuss the first section of Rodrigo Fresán's The Invented Part. This section, entitled "The Real Character," introduces us to the main character of the book--known here as The Boy, and later as The Writer--as well as some of the major themes of the novel. Wide-ranging and very fun, the discussion touches on The Boy's epic list of thoughts and ideas (such as "It Jell-O animal, vegetal, mineral, or interplanetary?"), on the two versions of F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tender Is the Night, Gerald and Sara Murphy, the idea of "the invented part," turning off our cell phones, and much more. Next week's guest will be Mark Binelli (Sacco and Vanzetti Must Die!, Screamin' Jay Hawkins' All-Time Greatest Hits, Detroit City Is the Place to Be), and will cover the first section of the second part of the novel, pages 46-98 of "Place Where the Sea Ends So the Forest Can Begin." Feel free to comment on this episode--or on the book in general--either on this post, or at the official GoodReads Group.

A photograph. An old shirt. A song. The sound of a voice. The scent of perfume or cologne. Memory is an incredibly powerful thing, and the older we get, the harder it is to access those deposits of information at will. Sometimes it takes one of the triggers mentioned above to make the memory jog itself, and recapture what you thought you had lost for so long. This past weekend I found a casette tape I had recorded on Christmas Day 1982. I was 11 years old. As I listened to the tape, and laughing at how young I sounded, and how little my sister was, I realized that I was hearing my Grandma’s voice again for the first time in nearly 20 years. I was instantly rushed back to that day, unwrapping presents and just being a kid again. It felt warm. It felt comfortable. In today’s podcast I talk about memories and how powerful they are to me. At the beginning of the podcast, you’ll hear a brief snippet of that tape. Try not to laugh at how dorky I sound. I was truly dorky back then. There are just no other words to explain how dorky I was. But the thing I noticed while listening to that tape was how normal we were. At the time I thought we were the most dysfunctional family in the world. But now, hearing how we interacted as a family, and how Christmas morning was as special to us as it would be to any family– I see that I had a pretty doggone good life. The song that opens today’s Podcast is called Remember by Harry Nilsson. The song is as beautiful as the message it conveys. It suits today’s show perfectly. It was also the very first song I learned when I joined Chicago Gay Men’s Chorus. I remember it all well. Thanks for sharing these memories with me.
