From today's strip- "Listen for an interview with us on NPR's Morning Edition this Friday."

I just heard an ad for it. Steve Inskeep said something about Chris not liking comics. Chris said something to the effect of "There's no richness in that." Scheduled for tomorrow morning.

Here it is finally.

I still haven't heard it. My computer is doing that thing where it won't make any sound, and I am afraid to reboot because right now the only way I have internet is off my neighbor's wireless and I am afraid to disturb the delicate balance of the situation. They may rerun that segment of the show here shortly, but I really ought to be getting on the metro to go try to get a new cable modem.

I just started listening. I didn't need to hear Onstad doing Ray and Beef's voice, just don't want to interfere with how I hear it in my head.

Not bad,wasn't anything mind blowing but not bad keeping in mind that it was aimed at an achewood unknown audience. Onstad has a decent speaking voice.

Finally heard it on the rerun. He is a lousy voice artist for his characters. But he does a good job of playing a reasonable, appealing guy on the radio.

Heard it on the way into work. And he is a lousy voice artist, but it got me wondering. He mentioned wanting to branch out. How about an old-timey radio play as a companion to the GOF with an ensemble cast?

Oh man, we are working on doing old-timey radio plays for our radio station. There is a small number of our DJs who are super into it. I am not one but they seem to think that I am.

I'm just contributing incidental guitar music for The Human Chord, a superhero who fights crime with the power of Funk. Based on the people writing it, I am betting on it being the best damn thing ever.

That might be a bit ambitious but how about starting off with GOF commentary? 3 DAYS OF IT!
