Bob and Bill kept their election aftermath rant short, then paid tribute to a diverse list of people celebrating birthdays that included Willie Nelson’s drummer and best friend, Paul English, and Bill’s friend Pasquale Giordano.
Bob (heartily) and Bill (reluctantly) acknowledged the existence of Halloween, but paid an enthusiastic tribute to Phil Lesh, the original and only bass player for the Grateful Dead.
Bob returned to the show for the first time in a month, but barely had time to catch up with Bill before Amy McFarland and her band (Chris Kepes, John Matre and Jim Mason) turned the studio into a Tiny Desk Concert.
Bill pays tribute to his longtime friend, Chip Mellor, a Piqua homeboy who lived a very different life. They went through school and to college together before their paths diverged, but their affection and respect for each other never wavered.
Bill mashed the buttons by himself in addition to delivering a political screed, introducing the unusual sounds of the Talk Low Festival and paying tribute to One-Hit Wonder Day.
This episode is about 13 minutes shorter than usual because Bill forgot to turn on the microphone midway through the show while telling a hilarious story about buying weed. Luckily, the story was saved.
Charlie, Bob’s delightful German Shepherd, brightened the studio Wednesday, right down to her perfectly timed “Woof” right as the final song started to play.
Cori Wolff, director of the Longworth-Anderson Series at Memorial Hall joined us to talk about this week’s show featuring Rosanne Cash and John Leventhal. In addition, Ryan Arnold and Kevin Schultz, who will play the pre-show reception, stopped by to play a few songs.
