Santa Cruz broadcast/podcast features comics

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on April 18th, 2005

Every Thursday, 5 to 6 PM PT, on KZSC 88.1 FM in Santa Cruz (and streaming live at www.kzsc.org and also podcasting) is “The Sound of Young America,” hosted by Jesse Thorn, who calls himself “America’s Radio Sweetheart.”

We make note of it because Mr. Thorn has gained a reputation and gathered listenership by insisting on interviewing a healthy number of standup comics on his show– Dave Attell, Todd Barry, Doug Benson, to name a few.

Has anyone ever heard a comedian not be a good interview? (That there is your rhetorical question.) We’ll make a Post-It and try to listen in on Thursday.
