1.3: Be the Brenda

Remastered. This week, Josie slips into something a little more comfortable as we explore love, socializing, and pickleball both in and out of our comfort zones. Our callers this week included the talents of Shane Snider, Carla Lerner Montero, Al Pagano, and Laura Lee Walsh. This episode was edited by Aliza Brugger. Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 3rd-best romantic advice call-in show. On-air, listeners eavesdrop as Josie (Rachel Music, How Do They Bone?) squares off against top improvisers and her engineer Frank (Maximilian Clark, Superhuman Public Radio). Each episode’s off-air vignettes chart her journey from melancholy Joanne Holtzinger to nationally syndicated sensation Josie Heller. What results is an often hilarious and surprisingly human show exploring the risks we idiots take every time we fall in or out of love.
