AngelasticParticipantI was thinking more that JoCo plays mainly cover songs rather than his own songs. It makes sense, since he has more episodes to spread his original songs over, but I was a trifle disappointed when he played a cover instead of First of May or [some other thematically-appropriate JoCo song; I can’t remember which I was thinking of or what the exact topics discussed were; perhaps Millionaire Girlfriend] after they talked to that sex therapist.
I hope they tape on the next cruise! That would be like Hey, Hey, I’m an Asshole, except it’d be based on an NPR quiz show I’d listened to before!
I listened to another episode yesterday, 203 I think, and it was like Thing A Week 52 all over again. π

Participantbtw…shouldn’t all of JoCo’s Ask Me Another appearances and songs sung be on the jocopedia?

Participant( ^ yes to this!)
Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but my friend Julie is interviewing to be an AMA contestant RIGHT NOW! Apparently the audition process includes a quiz and then an interview if they like your quiz answers.*all appendages crossed*March 14, 2014 at 12:41 pm #99713Madeleine
ParticipantThis newest episode, “Puzzlin’ on the Dock of the Bay,” is the best.

AngelasticParticipantI haven’t listened yet, but I just noticed that episode 312, Leggo my Lego, features Nathan Sawaya, who was an entertainer on JoCo Cruise Crazy 4.

ParticipantAnother awesome episode! I kept hoping they would mention the JoCo statue, but they didn’t. They should post a picture of it on the show website as a bonus.
[Edit 1: It’s on the twitter feed.]
[Edit 2: How could they have mentioned it when the episode was taped before the cruise. Come on now, Mads, use that noggin.]One advantage of listening on the NPR player: The musical interludes are at the end of each segment AND at the beginning of the following segment. So we get to hear them all twice. Shh! Don’t tell them; they’ll ‘fix’ it!April 4, 2014 at 9:25 pm #99844Madeleine

Update: SUCCESS! π Listen for my friend Julie Roubik in the Milwaukee episode. It tapes next week, so probably will air in about a month.December 16, 2014 at 10:36 pm #100467Craig
