“Did not the Abbe say: ‘Lost is that man who sees a beautiful woman descending a noble staircase’, and were not both these ingredients here, and ready to her hand? What else but a staircase could so perfectly set off the jewel she had made of Elfine?”
Here’s the recording of last night’s (2021-02-26) KNYO Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show, ready to re-enjoy.
And thanks to Hank Sims of Lost Coast Outpost here’s a page with not only the above MOTA show but also other ones going back awhile.
Besides all that, here’s a fresh batch of not-necessarily-radio-useful but worthwhile items that I set aside for you while gathering the show together, found mostly thanks to the fine websites listed to your right.

This is not a drill. (or) You know the drill. “Ahhh, you hear that cut? Ohhh, it’s drillin’ so good.” For people who really like drilling, and especially /watching/ powerful wet machines drill and be drilled. This reminds me of the beautiful video for Bjork’s /All Is Full Of Love/.

Who has enough money to ride in an airplane? Statistically, almost nobody. But just for a moment imagine you might one day be going someplace in an airplane. Here are some things to know. He doesn’t get to mentioning how much safer you are in a crash if you’re sitting in the very back. That’s where people survive when only one or two or three survive.
