Damn right, Jason. You have a mighty fine show, by the way, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I went off and bought myself a copy of "Blue Parsley", which I think you played, after listening to your last one. And your selection of French pop (at least I think it was) was great. Your blog is a great read too, and I've found all sorts of obscure gems through it, so many thanks for that.

I'll listen out for more colloquialisms :)

Thanks...

Thanks for the salute... And thanks for the list of British colloquialisms--I'll try to use a few on my next show.

A remix of the theme tune to Are You Being Served?: http://www.scottcairo.co.uk/pilchard/tunes/served.htm

Pilchard has a whole range of other remixes/mashups at: http://www.scottcairo.co.uk/pilchard/tunes/index.htm

I've spent this morning listening to WFMU (mp3 feed; ogg feed), a New York freeform radio station (basically, the DJs choose what to play). It is awesomely eclectic. It's like listening to the record collection of a mad friend who's spent too long at car boot sales. Jason Elbogen, I salute you.

I really should have a music category...
