Guest Andrew WK. This week is our last broadcast from our long-time home base, KZSC in Santa Cruz. We bid an affectionate farewell to the station with two of our favorite segments from our six years in Santa Cruz. The first is a chat with Andrew WK -- he talks about his philosophy of life, and offers some rock & roll advice to Jesse's younger brother Brendan. Then, we hear the original old time radio-style serial "Mace Detective, Private Detective." Mace investigates the mystery of Popinjay's Whizbang, when he's not being distracted by Goofus & Gallant. Also: a brand new sketch from the Kasper Hauser Skit Club. |
