Tonight at 8 p.m. on @wcrsfm.org New stuff from Wet Leg, Snapped Ankles, Kae Tempest, Steady Holiday, and the New Pornographers. Classics from vault that may be new to you as well. Link to listen on demand in the replies below, as well a note about this image.
This appears to be a promotional still from a 2017 theatrical production at Otterbein University called "Adding Machine, a musical". I landed on it by searching on "adding machine" and I like the stern looking young man with green accountant's visor. Then I found this particular picture with the other actor holding a vintage radio, and thought "Perfect". If anyone involved in this production would rather I not use this image, message me at pat@wcrsfm.org.
