Me on Stephanie Miller

Back when New Orleans had an Air America affiliate, I got hooked on the Stephanie Miller show. After the affiliate's parent company switched them to rebroadcast WWL's content, I still listened to her show over the web.

At first, I found the show too busy--lots of drops and sound effects. But her ribald sense of humor grew on me; she's not shy about joking about sex or her age. So in keeping with that spirit, I sent her an email after the fire, and she read it on the air. You can hear it here:




A few comments about the clip. I was pleased that I got some laughs out of the people on the show. I'm not 44; I just elevated my age for comedic effect. Also, I never said that her podcast got me through all those difficulties. I said her podcast got me through sifting through the rubble of my burned-out house, which it did. She edited my email for brevity's sake. I guess brevity is the soul of wit.

Also, I added the pictures of my cats just to convert the track to a video format. This blog won't allow me to upload audio tracks. I could have added pictures of the house, but I thought that would bring things down.
