The Bug S2#2: When the music stops

CO-HOSTED WITH NED McGOWAN!

Tonight at 6pm…Ned and I are co-hosting The Bug. We taped our conversation last night, and had a really good time, though there are minor technical issues which I’m sure you (our audience) will forgive, under the circumstances. We talked about rivers and starting trumpet lessons, about disasters and artistic inspiration in dark times. We spoke of silence and noise!

Enjoy, and don’t forget to think about contributing to the podcast via the paypal link below.
