If you've never listened before, this is a good episode to start.

2. You can really tell which side he is on re. Dean's press treatment
Harry really tore the press apart in that segment!

Dean fans should really listen to it. This Dean fan gives it two thumbs up.

6. In Chicago, Sunday nights are radio heaven
Edited on Tue Dec-28-04 01:40 PM by xray s
WBEZ plays Harry Shearer, then Joe Frank, and then Ken Nordine's Word Jazz.

Radio hasn't been this good since Firesign Theatre was on the air.

I never miss it.

7. What's Joe Frank like?
I have to admit that I've never heard of him. I have a feeling that I should have, though.

10. You can sample some of his stuff at his website
http://www.joefrank.com/

Sign up for the free membership to get an idea of what he's about. Most of the stuff I have listened to is kind of a zen-like monologue with a lot of weird twists.

I'll be sure to take a listen when I'm in a more...zen-like mood.

I'm was sure that I wasn't the only one tired of Air America repeats.

14. Same here.
I have gone through my iTunes library, and played some old CD's, just to fill the room with sounds. I will be glad when the holidays are over.

15. Heard it live last Sunday morning. I'm lucky 'cause it's local for me!
He originates the show from KCRW in Santa Monica (yes, even when he's in New Orleans), "The home of the homeless."

LeShow has been part of my Sunday morning ritual for years.
