I was out sick on Friday, and so the rest of the BPP crew did the video rundown for today's show. Posterity demands that it get posted:
Win, you're obviously not allowed to be sick. Thanks for posting that and demonstrating your own indispensability.
No way!!! I love the low-fi version.
This kind of thing is one of the reasons why I love the show/blog/media empire that is the BPP. You have all of the resources, professionalism, and skill that a listener expects from NPR. But you also know the value and the fun of the occasional near miss. Slick perfection of delivery isn't, nor should it be, the sole focus.
In a way the BPP reminds me of one of my favorite restaurants, the Green Street Cafe in Northampton, MA. (Didn't someone on the staff go to Smith? If so, then there is hope this analogy might be understood by at least one person in the world.) They have the most deliciously nuanced "country French cuisine" and fancy vintage silverware, but the staff wear jeans and are totally unpretentious.
Okay, the metaphor is a stretch. But you probably get that I'm paying a compliment.
For the record, I didn't think it actually existed and was all sweet talk but you surprise me once again. BPP you had me at "do do doo doo".
Hey! I went to Smith! But there was no Green Street Cafe when I was there back in the Jurassic era. I did live on Green Street, though! Yay for unpretentiousness!
That was freakin' awesome!
No offense intended Win.
Tricia, I didn't go to Smith, but I live nearby and like to walk around the campus as if it were my own. The art museum is awesome now!
