Radio Shows
"First
Person, Plural" aired on CFUV 101.9 FM 
Victoria, BC , May 9, 2002 to February 5, 2004
Making full use of community radio, we produced a show about how people get along with each other. Any topic that had to do with two people or more was fair game for this show. Most of us take for granted the social and cultural resources we use to interact with other people. "First Person, Plural" sought to examine the mundane and not-so-mundane ways in which we work and play together. Combining Pattie's sociological and journalistic background with Carl's business administration and musical (as he composes and performs the incidental music for the show) background, this show was a blend of news, features and cultural coverage on a wide variety of topics.

Our first foray into radio started on June 20, 2001, when we came up with a simple idea for an Internet radio show: We like to talk. We like to drink coffee. We like to go to coffee shops and talk and drink coffee. Why not do a show where we go to a coffee shop, drink coffee and talk about the world around us? We recorded 30 episodes of "Coffee Shop" over the next 14 months, and each one was encoded using our own computer and made available to listeners on the Internet via the LIVE365.com website. Subsequent "decisions" by the U.S. Library of Congress and by LIVE365 have made it impossible for us to continue to use the latter to host this project without the ludicrous consequence of paying "royalties" on our own intellectual property. We do hope that the episodes we recorded of "Coffee Shop" might make it onto broadcast radio or back onto the Net.
