Friday is the new Saturday

Open Source airs live from 7 to 8pm EST, Monday through Thursday. So Friday is the new Saturday. Unless you went out on Thursday night, in which case it’s perhaps the new Sunday. In either case, we’re not doing a show tonight.

    Following the logic you’ve laid out here, I guess Monday is the new Tuesday. I rather like that. I do admire the Carsoon-like schedule Chris worked out for himself.

    May I use this as an “open thread?”

    Historians and participants in a very public PubRad battle of a few years past will find the following to be very, very interesting indeed:

    Of course, many around these parts seemed to have moved on. But I still have a keen obsession, having been one of the primary web-warriors at the time.

    Back then I posted, “Quality will out.” It’s nice to be right about something for a change.

    THANKS CHRIS!!!!

    Today is Saturday, but, hearing Chris Lydon’s familiar voice just downloaded from the Open Source archives, I can’t restrain myself from jumping on the fanwagon, as if it were a Monday, I suppose.

    I doubt this is a new thread, so forgive me if this is misplaced, but I am so thrilled that I have discovered, once again, how to plug into Chris, his team, his connected community, and his guests. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!

    Today, I read in the Boston Globe about the comming last gasp of The Connection. With all due respect to Dick Gordon, how wonderful to find this natural next step in the interconnection of our ongoing public discussion. Wonderful!! I’ll look forward to listening and reading. Thanks, Boston Globe, for helping me discover how to reconnect with the original connection.

    Chris, you are such a jewel, such an innovator, such a leader, and such a help in connecting the dots. Bravo!!

    !!!

    Totally agree Sandy. As an immigrant in Boston of the late 90s, it irked me when the occasional prejudiced european friend visited, and made uninformed comments about american media being simplistic and bombastic. To disprove, I just had to turn on the radio after our lazy breakfast, and get them to listen to Chris for a while. (Of course, I could also terrify them by putting on a bit of the ranting AM band).

    It’s great to hear this team back on the air, and with the arrival of podcasting, there’s every opportunity for the show to gain an even wider audience. Best of luck, Chris, Mary and Co.
