This week's No Show features another chapter from Steve Post's "work-no-longer-in-progress." In this episode, Steve is "THE MANAGER" of WPFR -- Peace & Freedom Radio -- and appropriately lowers himself to the occasion. Other items include "Patriotism and Paper Towels" and a new department, "Pet Talk with Chip and Monk." The music this week is really quite good.
