Think Out Loud

I'll be participating in a discussion about Oregon based musical culture tomorrow morning (Wed. 2/27 9am, 91.5FM) on Oregon Public Broadcasting's innovative radio program titled "Think Out Loud" (link here for streaming info).
I'm excited to be a part of this program, while having no idea what to expect from it. Even the producers themselves admit that this spontaneity is a core part of their approach:

"What is Think Out Loud? We're still working on the one sentence answer — the version we'll trot out at parties when asked where we work. It might be that we're the radio show about the northwest where you always hear something interesting. Or perhaps the radio show that listens. Or maybe: the radio show with a Northwest heart, a global head and internet fingers. The fuller answer, of course, takes a bit longer. We're a daily show about politics and global issues, music and sports, books and the environment — anything and everything that can sustain an energetic hour of live, unscripted conversation. And, crucially, we're a web site that feeds into — and off of — that radio conversation."
