Hello, discriminating soundcast listener! I AM Marc Hershon and this is Episode 291 of Succotash, the Comedy Soundcast Soundcast. This installment is going to run a little longer than usual so I'm going to dispense with a lot of the blah-dee-blah-blah that I usually jabber away with at the top of the show so we can get right into the magic. I will take a moment to ask if you happened to catch last week's Epi290 with my enchanting co-host, the every-other-weekly-appearing Tyson Saner? He featured a triumvirate of tasty clips from the soundcasts known as Almost Viral with Simon the Magpie, Brian & Roger, and The Problem with Jon Stewart. Don't fret if it passed you by, as you can still snag a listen via Apple or Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Audible, Amazon Music, Podcast, YouTube, and our own homesite, SuccotashShow.com. (The one place you CAN'T catch it is Spotify because we're just not doing that these days…) This week I don't have soundcast clips for you because I'm too busy talking to soundcasters instead. First up I have a quick chat with J. Keith Van Straaten, co-host of Go Fact Yourself, the comedy gameshow soundcast he does with comedian Helen Hong. They are rounding on their 100th episode and are teaming up to do a live streaming version of the show you can watch on your computer on February 16th. So I invited him in to talk about that, and also ask how he is able to kick my ass so soundly in Scrabble. Then I talk with comedian, soundcaster, past guest and friend o' the show Matt Knudsen. Although we talk about his show, Grabbing Lunch, which is on a bit of a hiatus – thanks, COVID! – the main reason for his visit is to chat about his upcoming victory lap. He is running his 10th and final Los Angeles Marathon coming up on March 4th, and he is doing it to raise money (as he has done every year) for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. So Matt and I talk comedy, soundcasting, running, and how YOU can help him help some deserving kiddos get better through the efforts of St. Jude's. This week's episode is brought to you by a crossover sponsor: Empire State Gas, who is the regular advertiser for the Chillpak Hollywood Hour with Dean Haglund and Phil Leirness. Chillpak is starting their third season this week, which means they have moved to a new distributor, Subspace Radio, and to help them spread the word, Empire State Gas is spreading the wealth and dropping a spot on our show. Except they're not paying for it. I still don't get how this advertising thing works… I hope you enjoy my double sitdown. Back in this feed next week will be Tyson and some more soundcast clips. Or maybe HE'LL have a Succotash Chat. Who knows? I may have clips the week after that but I have some more awesome convos lined up, too, so it's hard to say exactly. What I DO know is that I'm hoping you take good care of yourself and others, try to abide by whatever crazy COVID rules your local health officials have going on right now, and if anyone happens to pass you in the liquor store and asks if you're listening to anything good lately, won't you please pass the Succotash? — Marc Hershon

Episode No. 453 of The Modern Art Notes Podcast features curators Naima J. Keith and Kelli Morgan. Along with Diana Nawi, Keith is the curator of the forthcoming Prospect triennial, "Yesterday We Said Tomorrow," in New Orleans. The fifth edition of Prospect was scheduled to open this fall, but was postponed a year, to Oct. 23, 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (The exhibition will now run through Jan. 23, 2022.) Keith joins host Tyler Green to discuss what postponing a 51-artist show requires, especially for artists who had built schedules around a 2020 time-frame, how postponing an exhibition of new work originally scheduled to open just a couple weeks before an American presidential election may change it, and more. In addition to co-curating Prospect 5, Keith is the vice president for education and public programming at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. On the second segment, Indianapolis Museum of Art curator Kelli Morgan discusses the challenges and opportunities within presenting permanent collection galleries of nineteenth-century American art when most American art museums' collections of the period consist of primarily white artists.

Let us know at @regeneratespod if you are amused and what Tenth Doctor episode would be in your starter kit?
"Last fall I went to Argentina and I spent most of my time feeling embarrassed about why I was there.I didn't go to Argentina to see the sights, learn to tango, or hunt Nazis. I flew almost 6500 miles to see a show. Three shows. Three concerts of songs from the musical Next to Normal sung by a combination of its Argentinian cast (“Casi Normales”) and a reunion of its original Broadway cast." - J. Keith van Straaten on Wanderlust From the “Rant & Rave” recorded live at Rogue Machine Theatre on August 22, 2016. Couldn’t make it to the theatre to see this month’s edition?

Deryck is a different animal than I usually have on-AMAZING social skills! Here's a guy who's famous for his hat design collections-Miley Cyrus wore one when she hoste SNL, as well as hosting a weekly party, Strut, that celebrities like Paris Hilton mix with regular folks. Plus, he's also creator of the annual Bowie Ball. I drill down to find what makes Deyck so gifted with people. Introducing people and putting them together is an art for him.

(Free sound effects courtesy of 'Soundjay.com'),Keith : Good morning Susan, I see you are admiring the new printer.Susan: Hi Keith. Yes, it is about time we had a new one and, with all the new features on this one, I think it will make life much easier.K: Absolutely, especially as this one is voice-activated.S: Voice-activated? Are you sure? I am sure I didn’t see anything like that in the instruction manual when I was reading it.K: No one actually reads instruction manuals. You need to just have a practice, a bit of trial and error. It is scientifically proven that there is no substitute for hands-on experience; reading instruction manuals is not going to do you any good. Take it from me.S: I will feel really silly talking to a printer. It doesn’t seem right.K: Oh Susan, you need to embrace the future! Just use a nice assertive voice and be clear with your instructions and the printer will do whatever you ask.S: (clears throat) Print the document I have just sent to you, in colour on double sided paper.K: Don’t forget to say please, Susan, where are your manners?S: Oops, sorry. Please print the document I have just sent to you, in colour on double-sided paper. Printer? Did you hear? Print! In colour! Ugh I hate technology, I must be doing something wrong.Janet: Morning all. What on earth are you doing Susan?S: I just can’t get this thing to print.J: Well you’re not going to get anywhere by shouting at it, it can’t hear you.S: But I thought it was voice activated… I was just practising with it…trying to get some hands-on experience and…learn through trial and error.J: Voice activated? Don’t be daft, we’re a sales company, not NASA.K: I often see you struggling with technology Susan, and I hate to see this…waste of company time. I think maybe you should take one of the lunchtime IT refresher courses that the IT department run.J: Good idea, Keith. Are you free this lunchtime Susan?S: Well, yes, but I…J: Great, it’s settled, I’ll speak to IT to arrange it. K: Ha! Ha! Ha!S: Very funny, Keith. That’s my lunchtime wasted, I was looking forward to an hour of peace and quiet.K: Got you hook, line and sinker…Ha! Ha! Ha!Later …K (to himself): It’s been ages since I last used a laminating machine, I didn’t even realize we had one in the office. What’s this? Instructions for using the touch screen features of this machine. Oh, nice try Susan, but you can’t fool me that easily. She must have hidden the keyboard somewhere around here.Janet: Keith, whatever are you doing?K: Hi Janet, I’ve just got some laminating to do.J: Yes, I guessed as much, but, what I meant was, why are you rummaging around underneath the table?K: I was just looking for the keyboard that goes with this machine. I think Susan must have hidden it somewhere.J: Why would she have done that? In fact, I don’t think you need a keyboard for this machine, it’s touch-screen isn’t it? Susan, can you come here a second?S: Sure!J: Keith’s having trouble with this machine; you’ve not hidden the keyboard have you?S: No, there’s no keyboard, it’s touch-screen. You just click here [beep] and then here [beep] put the thing you wanted to laminate here and then click “go”. [beep] … And it’s done. Simple! In fact, the instructions are right here in front of you.J: Honestly Keith, sometimes I wonder if you walk around with your eyes shut. I am surprised you can’t work out how to use the laminating machine, though, considering you are always saying how you are a technophile and even Susan, who claims to not understand technology at all, is an expert at it. Maybe I should send you on an IT course as well as Susan.K: Oh no Janet, there is no call for that; I wouldn’t want to put you out.J: Not at all. It is important that you understand how to use all the machines correctly; it saves time in the long run. Having said that, from her talent with the laminator it’s obvious that Susan learns best from hands-on experience so I’m not sure the course would be much use for her, she’ll get the hang of the new printer soon enough. I’ll tell IT to expect you instead. Thanks for your help Susan.K: Yes, thanks for your help, Susan.S: I’m always happy to help! Enjoy your lunch Keith.

Mandy, Graham, and CMO Rajasri hang with trivia/nerd whiz J. Keith van Straaten, shortly before J. Keith beats the crap out of Graham for calling him a "nerd whiz" (Graham prefers to believe it was because of his superiority at knowing trivia facts). RiotCast.com

You can get the mp3. here (opens in a new window)Episode 1 - The 4 o' Clock Cake Break(first published in "the AngloKlaxon", free sound effects courtesy of 'Soundjay.com')Susan: Good morning.Keith: Hi, I’m Keith, you must be the new girl in accounts. Susan isn’t it?S: Yes, that’s me.K: How’s your first day been so far?S: Oh not bad, just getting to grips with the new computer system, meeting everyone, finding where everything is and doing the admin.K: You’ll be settled in in no time. What firm were you at before?S: I was at Pierson’s as an accounts assistant.K: Which means that this is a bit of a promotion?S: Yeah, it’s a lot more responsibility. I’m a bit nervous, but I’m looking forward to getting stuck in. The team seems nice.K: They’re really good guys, generally, but there are one or two practical jokers.S: Anyone I should watch out for? K: You’ll figure them out pretty soon. I’m sure you’ll be fine as long as you stick to the office traditions. Which reminds me: what cake did you make?S: Cake?K: Yeah, one of our oldest traditions is that when someone new starts they bring in something for the four o’ clock cake break. Didn’t anyone tell you?S: No, they didn’t mention that.K: Oh dear. Well, it’s not the end of the world; you’ve still got time to buy one. I doubt anyone will mind too much that it’s not home-made, just so long as you’ve made the effort. Well, I ought to get back to work, see you later.Later that day…Janet: Keith?K: Yes Janet? J: Can I have a word?K: Actually I was just about to…err…J: It won’t take a second.K: Err, ok.J: I’ve just had Susan asking me where the nearest bakery is so that she can buy something for the four o’ clock cake break. Do you know anything about this?K: Err…No.J: Because she said she was glad you told her because she didn’t want to get on the wrong side of the staff on her first day by coming in empty-handed.K: Ah yes, it might have been me who told her.J: But Keith, we don’t have a four o’ clock cake break.K: No, but I thought it might be good for moral if we started to have one.J: She seemed under the impression that we always had one.K: Maybe she misunderstood what I said.J: Was it also a misunderstanding that made her believe that by tradition, as the new employee, it was her who had to buy the cakes? K: Well…what is a tradition anyway? It’s just something that happens because it’s always happened. They all have to start sometime, it’s just a coincidence that this tradition has started now…J: Keith?K: Yes Janet?J: You will apologise to Susan and pay her back for the cake.K: Yes Janet.J: And leave her alone for pity’s sake, it’s the poor girl's first day.Water Cooler NotesIt was her who had to buy the cakes - this is grammatically incorrect, it should be "it was she who had to buy the cakes", but it is a mistake that is often made.Ltd – abbreviation for ‘limited’, it refers to the way a business is set up. If ‘ltd’ follows a company name, it means it is a private company limited by shares or by guarantee. This basically means that if the company owes money that it can’t pay and goes into debt, the shareholders and owners are not liable for the debt, their liability is limited, and they won’t have to pay the debt.In accounts – in the accounting department of the firm. Office workers often shorten job titles in this way, such as ‘repro’ instead of ‘reprographics’ (the photocopying department), or ‘archives’ instead of ‘the archiving department’. People, especially professionals, sometimes introduce their job in this way saying ‘I’m in banking’ rather than ‘I am a banker’ or ‘I work in banking’.Getting to grips – learning how to use. Admin – short for administration, it means red-tape, or paperwork.Be settled in – be comfortable in a new environment, such as a new house, or new job.Promotion – a higher position or rank (usually with better pay).Getting stuck in – starting to work hard.Practical joker – someone who plays tricks on people to make them look foolish.It’s not the end of the world – it’s not a really bad situation.Made the effort – tried to do something.Can I have a word? – Can I talk to you? (although this is a question, often it is a rhetorical question, a question that does not require an answer, and is just a way of getting someone’s attention).Coincidence – an accident where two unrelated things occur at the same time.Leave her alone – stop bothering her.For pity’s sake – a way of expressing annoyance or anger without swearing or blaspheming (these are called ‘minced oaths’), such as ‘for crying out load’
