Join us in this episode for a conversation with Sarah Eichhorn, daughter of writer Dennis P. Eichhorn, known for his adult-oriented autobiographical comic book series “Real Stuff.” With reminiscences echoing a central premise of her father's work—that truth is stranger than fiction—Sarah recounts his birth and orphanhood at Montana State Prison. Sarah later talks of her fight to keep her infant child, which succeeded in part thanks to her father's intervention. With healthy measures of wit and soul, the younger Eichhorn's tales transport us to the Northwest's creative milieu of the 70's, 80's and 90's through which her iconoclastic father traveled. With a cast of colorful characters including comic book illustrators Peter Bagge, Pat Moriarity and Triangle-Slash among others, we learn of Dennis' lauded editorial work for The Rocket in Seattle and, later, for Libertarian publisher Loomponics Unlimited, based in Port Townsend, WA. As if a testament to the fullness of her father's capacious life, Sarah friendships encompass generations of talented artists: Anchoring this episode's soundscape are the polyrhythmic laments of Jason Webley (originally of Everett, WA) and the pensive ballads of singer songwriter Eilen Jewell (originally from Boise, ID). We'll also enjoy archival recordings of Dennis P. Eichhorn sharing stories. Warning: This episode's content is more suitable for adult listeners. "My life may not seem that vanilla, but it could have been a lot more wild; I've lived on the side of caution because of a lot of his escapades." ~Sarah Eichhorn

Accordion Noir Radio - Ruthlessly pursuing the belief that the accordion is just another instrument.
Always a lot going on in the accordion world, including often-surprising connections to current events. Sometimes it takes us a while to reflect the news in our broadcasts, other times you get same-day service! Either way, here’s another hour of alt-accordion audio streaming at you out of CFRO Co-Op Community Radio. If your Apple or Android (or plain old RSS) […]
This charming guy was a delight to hang out with. Just being around him at a show brings a smile to the air. It was amazing watching him and his troop perform on the shore of Langus Park river. I hope Jason continues to come up with these unique visions and share them with our city. Be on the lookout next July for his show down a river in middle America!
Through the early to mid-noughties, Amanda Palmer's voice cut through as frontwoman for the Dresden Dolls. Their cabaret pop filled the airwaves, and when she went solo fans were just as curious. Palmer is a woman of great conviction; she speaks often about the communities that form around art, and is unrelenting in her commitment to her own vision. She's also great company. When she did this Take 5 in the Summer of 2011, she had just got married and was about to release her album Amanda Palmer Goes Down Under. So from the Magnetic Fields to Paul Kelly and the appropriately-titled Love, here's Amanda Palmer with her love song dedications. Jason Webley - ‘Eleven Saints {Ft. Jay Thompson}' The Magnetic Fields - ‘The Book of Love' Ben Folds Five - ‘Song for the Dumped' Paul Kelly With Uncle Bill - ‘Taught By Experts' Love - ‘Everybody's Gotta Live'

Organizing a circus is no easy task. Ring-leading a month-long floating circus in a boat down the Willamette River is even harder. We ask Jason Webley, a performer and organizer with the Flotsam River Circus, how his traveling performance experiment from Corvallis to Portland is going this summer.

Get out your hands and feet and then somebody else's hands or feet (your choice) cause we just hit show number 30! This week's show is like the back of a highlights book where you have to figure out what's different. Can you figure it out? I'll give you a hint: it has nothing to do with the assembly of medival weapons or a lack of pants or the Cliffhanger fan club or the ghost of Peanuts Past or Annie's New Gold Tooth...still haven't gotten it? Well, I could give you more hints, but I've got a murder weapon to assemble. Musical Guest: Jason Webley performing "Dance While the Sky Crashes Down" and "Maps" Tales of Wonder: * Tourist Season Begins * Catapult Assembly 101 * Ear Patches are Sexy * If We Wrote "Cliffhanger" it Would Have Been A Much Better Movie * Business Squirrel Hunting) Most Memorable Lines Taken Out of Context: * "Everything's better on Roller Skates. I'm planning on getting that tattoo as a bumper sticker." * "That sounds like a fat lady looking at a chocolate empire state building." * "Those are animatronic bugs that are selling something. Those are animatronic bugs with purpose. Those are animatronic bugs with a career goal." * "The timing was so perfect that we totally shat little green apples." * "And there can be Planet Argo the Horse and Plant Joxer the kind-hearted bumbling idiot."
