I'd have to duck out for Jim Price & Olivia. But, there are archives.

hi fred!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:35pm Webhamster Henry:

Or just simulcast Jim, and post process him. Olivia produces and plays her Secret Harmonies, which are not unlike the Radio Extravaganza.

Thanks for the Dylan!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:36pm Ike:

That timeslot would work about as well as this one for me, maybe a bit better.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:37pm fred:

Two collage shows at the same time... sounds tempting to play them both (pop-up + winamp could work). That would be a kind of betrayal though
Avatar 5:38pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

Sure thing not necessarily the real Ken
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:41pm fred:

The complex Ken has a real Ken part and an imaginary Ken part. Either one may be missing, though

@Rich I aim to give little bits of it over the years until you've got it all

Reportedy , Peter Sellers really wanted to do this movie and would go to parties in character and made people move away from the TV etc.

I was listening to Resonance FM one saturday recently and was delighted to hear an episode of Radio Raviola rebroadcast there.

Avatar 5:59pm Carmichael:

Alrighty then.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:59pm fred:

But that's only the Cartesian Ken. The polar Ken has a Ken distance and a Ken angle. The Fourier Ken has a Ken amplitude and a Ken phase, and is often related to a Ken frequency, which seems in its favor in this case
Avatar 6:00pm Carmichael:

What is the Kenneth, frequency??
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:01pm Rich in Washington:

Oh. there's vote on the floor. <bends over, picks it up>
