Episode #200: We’ve Been Good but We Can’t Last

Full Duplex Radio

The week we surprise ourselves by reaching 200 episodes, a number so vast that chimpanzees have no word for it in their language. We celebrate with contributions from listeners, a visit from two longtime show hangers-on, music from some of our favorite artists and styles, many versions of one song, at least one foreign language, and more chat than reasonable for a music-and-chat show. We end up with the longest program we’ve ever done, and now we’re exhausted. You should download it and listen to it. Take your time, come back to it whenever you want, it will remember your place. Thanks and all that.
