Yes, oboe. Stop whining. No, I’m serious. Be quiet. It’s my show. Sheesh. The next ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday, 02/20/15, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will feature material that includes and/or features Oboe. You try programming that, hotshot. You’d be throwing in bassoons and French horns, hoping nobody noticed. Don’t think I won’t turn this car around. I have my eye on you. This is all @talkradio200‘s fault, for the theme at least (and for many suggestions regarding the orchestral material in the show), although he will hate hate hate the Zappa material. All will...

The next ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday, 02/13/15, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will be a two-part show. The first hour will consist of what I’ll call New Retro–newer artists who, for the most part, harken back to old school Country and the like.

The next ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday, 01/30/15, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will be all about the wonderful world of Addiction. A lot of songs will be familiar to listeners of my show, and a handful will be relatively new. The music will run uninterrupted after a short generic CLAR intro. Spotify set list here. Hope you can stop by and listen, and join us in chat! Spoiler set list: Rolling Stones: Country Honk Kurt Weill: Alabama Song The Who: The Real Me Joe Pass: Days of Wine and Roses Tom Waits: Jockey Full of...

The next ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday night, 01/23/15, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will concern itself with 2014 Americana. There will be a bit of overlap vis. September’s “New Americana” show, but not much. About half of the show will consist of Chris Thile and Edgar Meyer’s Bass & Mandolin, which is utterly magnificent, at least in my estimation. Hope you can stop by, listen to the show, and join us in chat. Spotify list here (minus my narratives), so non-Tribbles won’t feel completely left out.
