Sonic Cafe #367/The Accidental Hipster

Sonic Café, Steely Dan with a song about a down and out hipster, so ahh welcome to our little coastal radio café, I’m your host Scott Clark and this is episode 367. This time the Sonic Café brings you a thing we’re calling the Accidental Hipster. Comedian Derrick Stroup is here to share his story of moving to the big city only to discover he’s been a hipster all along and didn’t even know it. His story is in a music mix pulled from 51 years, including Dave Matthews, The Black Keys, Dashboard Confessional, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers, The Clash and many more. Then around the bottom of the hour we’ll zip back to 1970 in the Sonic Café time machine to hear a one hit wonder written by Tommy James and recorded by Alive N’ Kickin’. Listen for Tighter and Tighter. And finally in our ongoing efforts to not only entertain, but also educate the Sonic Café presents an informative documentary about the origins of dirt. So ahh there you have it. All straight ahead on the Accidental Hipster, from that little radio café that brings you an eclectic mix of music comedy and pop culture from way out here in the Pacific Northwest. Here’s music from King Tuff, and as always we’re the Sonic Café.

TBR 231208 - Idiots, Imbeciles, & Morons*

For this week’s archive radio show we examine that period wherein after a brief hiatus from the airwaves with the Thunderbolt’s fallout at KOWA, the Thunderbolt was once again on the air in Olympia! (Albeit on an unlicensed station — and it only played if someone got around to playing it…). Next, Ken Nordine introduced the Thunderbolt crew before we differentiated the biggest difference between black people and white people. We exposed evil plots to turn us all into Zuckers, we sang an ode to the mothers of our world, and we revealed a face of Muammar Qaddafi that is probably very unfamiliar to you. For the feature piece we exposed government sterilization programs that were very popular back in the day. Cringeworthy anecdotes of pusillanimous perfidy mixed with lame metaphors. Listen at your own risk.
