This is better, and worse. Lady Catharsis finally makes it to the studio, where we are joined by pitching co-host Jeff and the criminally uncredited Kristi, who did not have the benefit of a microphone. We actually earned money on this night, which is novel. My mother was Mrs. Moneybags, though other listeners pitched in on that front as well, to save me a bit of embarrassment. There was a good feeling on the night, as opposed to the barely contained desperation of the previous week.
I can't help but feel that this episode is a bit unfocused, musically, though. Granted, when I invite Lady Catharsis into the studio, we are always in the Listening Parlour, and I generally feel like the more I get my way, the better my show is (hmm). It certainly wasn't a wall-to-wall "Legends Night" like last week's episode, and it definitely sounds less exciting than the "flutes and synthesizers" Jeff promises on his own program, "Radio Nomadics." I have to say I simply don't like Mariachi El Bronx, that Jeff embarrasses me (without meaning to) by pronouncing "toque" "correctly," and that "Metronomic Underground" is not a happy song. ("Thieves Like Us" is.) All that said, the "ragged segues" I predicted really didn't come to pass, and for the most part things went more smoothly than planned. "Striving for Excellence in Content and Technique?" Sometimes we get there.
