This week on Eye 5, KLCC’s independent music program. We’ll hear the wry wit of The Divine Comedy, alongside the decidedly wicked comedy of Father John Misty. We’ll also hear new music from Oregon’s The Shivas, Reptilians and more. -
Join us on Christmas Day, noon until 5:00pm as KLCC presents a This American Life Holiday Marathon! We kick off the fun and merriment with the epic 30-minute version of David Sederis’ now legendary tale of being an elf for a mall-Santa. From there you’ll hear hilarious, tender, and off-beat takes on the holiday as only This American Life can do. An amazingly talented improv group riffs on the holiday before an audience, Jonathan Goldstien imagines Santa as a widower, and the late great David Rakoff shares wisdom that one can only get from playing Sigmund Freud in the window of an upscale Barney's department store in Manhattan. Our own team of elves at KLCC poured through the archives to bring you all these favorites and more. -
