Flat Earth

The I.W.H. persists in its mission to leave no holiday undamaged by its attentions.  This week's show will be even more historically educational than usual as we recall that classic mnemonic device, "In Fourteen Hundred and Ninety-Three, Columbus sailed the big blue sea." 

After that, the usual grab bag of weirdness.

Jana PochopTook an offer for a ride to Amarillo
It was 23 miles by a drunken crow
Be careful who you talk to when you roll down your window
And you can't call home
~ Paper Rock Scissors, Jana Pochop

My fellow musician, blogger and internet buddy Jana Pochop (that'd be with a silent “h”) has just released her new EP The Early Year. The Austin based history major turned singer-songwriter has had a jam packed year, from going to Folk Music Grad school to putting out the EP (which includes playing all the instruments you hear on the album!) to touring as a Merch girl with the Grammy winning Susan Gibson and more.

Join me Tuesday from 9-10 am for great music by female singer-songwriters, an interview with Jana and to hear tracks from her new EP!

Beside a Burning Sea2 "Shores weaves psychological intrigue by looking at his characters' competing desires: love, revenge, and meaning. Both lyrical and deeply imaginative, BESIDE A BURNING SEA confirms again that Shors is an immense talent." -- Amy Tan, author

Highly recommended novelist John Shors is determined to make a unique connection with readers. An avid supporter or reading groups, he included a letter at the conclusion of his debut novel, Beneath a Marble Sky, inviting reading groups to email him and schedule an interview. The response was overwhelming. To date, John has spoken to more than 1,300 book clubs. This extraordinary commitment garnered him a feature on the CBS "Evening News" and an article in Newsweek. He looks forward to reaching out to reading groups again this fall to discuss BESIDE A BURNING SEA.

Please join us for Writers' Voices with Monica and Caroline, this Friday, October 10th, at 1pm, to hear from this engaging novelist.  read more »

Jack Garcia is considered by his peers and leading FBI experts to be the most successful undercover agent in the history of the Bureau. In his 26 years of service with the FBI, Garcia is best known for his undercover role as "Jack Falcone," who penetrated the Gambino crime family of La Cosa Nostra in New York for nearly three years. The case resulted in the arrest and conviction of 32 mobsters, including the top members of the Post John Gotti Gambino crime family. He was featured this week on CBS 60 Minutes discussing his book, Making Jack Falcone, An Undercover FBI Agent Takes Down a Mafia Family.

sunnyland

You know, when I start ditching tracks by Sunnyland Slim (one of my top 5 blues pianoers, evah!) because of time constraints, you'd better believe that I'm liable to show up with a pretty sterling 60 minute set of blues! Well, this Saturday night from 7 to 8 you are guaranteed the very best, the creme de la creme, of blues music. No dogs, no "eh, kind of intersting", no ho-hums - nothing but the real deal and plenty of it.

Need proof? Reassurance? We'll be playing Otis Rush, Howlin' Wolf, Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, Lazy Lester and more of your all-time favorites. Need spice? Something out of the ordinary? We'll be offering up Dr. Isiah Ross, Big John Wrencher (best one-armed harmonica player it's ever been my pleasure to see live...), Henry Gray and a few more, well, "obscure" musicianers. Exalted, reviled or ignored; top-notch all of them.  read more »
