Last Saturday morning I visited the nearby KPFA studios to chat with my old friend Josh Kornbluth, who was guest hosting the “Morning Talkies” show. It was a lot of fun sharing a radio studio with Josh again — we’d collaborated many years ago, in Cambridge, on an ebullient but slapdash variety show that was plagued by all sorts of live-radio mishaps. Something about our on-air reunion seemed to summon that spirit; as we started our interview, someone barged into the studio and began hauling boxes out on a dolly. Before she was done she’d even tried to nab my tote bag. It threw us off track for a spell, but we managed to regain our composure and have a great chat about Dreaming in Code, blog-reading addiction, and how to manage one’s informational diet.
You can listen to the show here. The same hour features two other great guests: Gray Brechin, author of “Imperial San Francisco,” talking about the Living New Deal project; and Berkeley philosophy professor John Campbell on the nature of perception and questions like, do colors have any reality independent of our individual perceptions? (I’m a little late posting about this — busy round here right now — but better late than never!)
