(Still on break. Should be doing something new in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience!)
A flashback to a time when the news was surrounded by a lot more music: December 30, 2000!
I was rummaging around at my mom’s place this week and stumbled across even more tapes of my early shows. Back in those days, I had a much less news-focused show, with quirky music stuffed in at seemingly random moments.
This presented a problem: should I podcast it?
The answer is yes! I have cut out the music in the past, but not this time. It’s integral to the conversation, and I think it’s covered under fair use. I did clip out the PSAs and weather — although I cleverly replaced them with podcast promos.
So.. don’t sue me – I have no money. If there are complaints, however, I might pull the ep and remove the music.
The Music:
- Coffee and TV by Blur.
