Ah! Un Poco De Live!
Sometimes we've gotta wonder about "C'mon Live A Little" host Derrick Bostrom: is he lazy, stupid or just inconsiderate?
When he submitted this week's show, he claimed he had a "cold" and warned us that it was "a little light on host segments" since he'd "lost his voice." Then we looked at his playlist: turns out there's hardly a word of English in it! Clearly, he's taken all the tracks with German and Portuguese and what-have-you in the titles -- all the languages that he's too embarrassed to try to pronounce -- and thrown them into one show! There's so much Brazilian music here that if we didn't know better, we'd think he was trying to mount a stealth attack on Switched On Audrey's Sunday afternoon turf!
Otherwise, it's business as usual -- another typically diverting hour, driven by the fathomless sounds of Cortijo, Deodato, Uschi Brüning, Carlos Romanos, Os Catedraticos, Os Intocaveis, Wilson Das Neves, Jerzy Milian, Celso Murilo, Enzo Lupo and many other top drawer tounge twisters.
Join Mr. Bostrom this Saturday at 3PM for “C’mon Live a Little!” Just because he's given up on his responsibilities doesn't mean you should give up on him.
Programming note: this episode will debut on September 13th, and be rebroadcast on September 20th.
