KChung Radio Daze

In 2012, in the flower of my 30s, I started a talk radio show on Kchung Radio, a pirate radio station based in Chinatown, Los Angeles. Like all the other shows, mine was almost always recorded live. It was before slickly produced podcasts became our cultural norm, which means there were no edits, frequent technical gaffes, and questionable sound values.* The New York Times’ Jory Finkel wrote a piece about Kchung and covered my show!

It was is a nifty document of the art / creative world in LA (and my social life) in the 2010s. If the names of the guests are not luminous to you, their personalities and conversations will be, I promise. I was and am very proud of this show, so please give it a listen.
