The very large list of music I ingested today...

I was in a mood. I grabbed a giant pile of music from Goetzman's office and made like a DJ. You might think it wrong to give so many albums such inadequate attention (I do a lot of skipping around). But what am I to do? This is the only crate digging I ever get around to anymore. Albums marked with an "*" will be getting a second listen.

I have a Wallace Shawn question for you...

Inconceivable

Some months ago I interviewed Wallace Shawn for the UtneCast. It was a fascinating conversation that focused mostly on his politics. What are his politics? Let's just say he's got the revolution on his mind.

So here's my question: I'm trying to figure out how to set the podcast up. Shawn is an accomplished playwright but I'm guessing most people know him from his role in The Princess Bride. People I talk to can't picture the guy at all until I tighten my lips and say "inconceivable!"

Would you need that prompt to know who the guy is?

UPDATE: Here's the podcast...
