Descended from some of the great rope and lamppost artists of the world. from Jan 18, 2022

I’ve been a huge fan of Courtney T. Edison since first discovering him on the radio when I lived in NYC. I’m very happy that I can now get his shows as podcasts too. The only thing that I ask is: please WFMU let him do more shows!  He’s a national treasure!

Huge Fan

Lovely personality to complement the 78rpm shellacs!

Fantastic curmudgeonly podcast
