The Basement Replacement Edition

The two best things about producing The Cricket and Seagull every
week are 1) the interesting people I get to interview, and 2) the
listeners who send an email with a comment, a guest they'd like to
hear, or just encouragment. So, I'm sorry to disappoint on those
rare occasions where I can't get a show done -- and this month I've
missed 3 in a row due to flooding and water damage. So, this is
just a quick update -- we'll call it the -- Basement Replacement
edition -- the whole studio has had to be removed and will be
repainted, recarpeted and the equipment moved back in. So today I'm
coming to you live from -- my bedroom. Hope you don't mind. We'll
be back in business this Friday, appearing on MeridianMagazine.com
like usual, and of course the podcast. The Podcast also has a new
website that's pretty easy to remember; it's
TheCricketAndSeagull.com. Coming up in the next three weeks I'll be
editing interviews I did during the annual LDS Booksellers
Convention in Salt Lake City, and during BYU Campus Education Week.
These will include world-reknowned pianist Marvin Goldstein,
folksinger and songwriter Sam Payne, and the new 4-member women's
vocal group called One Clear Voice. They were all great guests with
terrific music and I can't wait to share them all with you starting
this Friday! Also, the Podcast itself will be moving to a shiny new
spot on the web. iTunes should automatically redirect without you
needing to do anything when the change happens, but if you're
feeling tech-savvy and don't want to miss an episode, just go to
iTunes or whatever Podcatcher you use, and resubscribe using the
following URL (you can cut and past this):

be sure and send an email to info@wordofmouthmedia.net and let me
know what you'd like to hear -- your favorite musical or visual
artists, authors, scholars, and more! We'll go out with a preview
of One Clear Voice singing "Be Thou My Vision" from their new debut
CD "One Clear Voice."
