Wish they'd done a Zelazny story.
Somebody please please screen-scrape this and create a podcast.
(Hey I heard about this great new site called Boing Boing, figured I'd steal all their links...)
"Abbott and Costello, Superman, Groucho Marx, The Avenger, Gunsmoke, Sherlock Homes, and many others."
As BoingBoing put it: "The Sherlock Holmes Society of London has hundreds of free MP3s of Sherlock Holmes radio plays from the 1930s -- amazing!"
Fuck you, NPR, if I want a snob I'll take an Oxbridge snob.
Listen to Brian Eno, Bruce Sterling etc talks as mp3s.
update: I'm disappointed. Not in the seminars, which I haven't listened to yet, but in whatever geek they got to create the mp3s. They're 128kbps, really excessive for voice, and no ID3 tags. The illusion of infalliability is shattered.
"An extensive customizable list of (almost) all public radio stations that offer streaming audio and what they have playing now and in the future."
Dammit, if I can't find a circle of pretentious bastards in LA, I'll make my own.
Will avoid the poetry slams, but some of this might be fun. Do they serve drinks?
