Still no word on the status of the to-be-restored KFAI audio archives. We have been assured by staff that they are working hard at solving that continuing problem (read, pain in the ass). Cross your fingers, like we are -- we want this feature back, too!

For 15 years now Radio Rumpus Room has been broadcast Fridays at 9-10:30 p.m. on KFAI Fresh Air Radio, FM 90.3 Minneapolis and 106.7 St. Paul. The show streams live on the Internet, and as always, our two most recent shows are archived in their entirety in RealAudio. Just visit the RRR web page anytime to listen to this noise and accompanying yakkin' by Ron and Jean.

Playlist for Friday, December 29, 2006

Ron and Jean were back after wresting the reins from last week's sub-host, Todd Mayberry. Thanks again Todd!
