Sonic Café. Welcome to episode 61. I’m your host Scott Clark. You remember our 43rd president George W. Bush right? You know …911, Weapons of Mass Destruction, Mission Accomplished, Hurricane Katrina and the Great Recession … yeah that guy. Now that the dust has settled on those years, we think we’ve identified what the ‘W’ in George W Bush actually stands for… his alter ego Will Ferrell! Seems to be so, because whenever President Bush stepped in front of the TV cameras Will must have been there… like a little tiny guy sitting on his shoulder, whispering all those historic one-liners directly into his ear. To test our theory, the Sonic Cafe has developed a little game we call… Is it George or is it Will? We’ve mixed up a bunch of sound clips that’ll play back to back. Listen to see if you can identify which clip is George W. Bush and which is his alter ego Will Ferrell. The answers may surprise you. All that plus an eclectic music mix including classic jazz from Andrew Hill, Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes, Ani DiFranco, Joshua James and more… covering 43 years… in honor of our 43rd president. So join us for… Is it George or is it Will?… this time from the Sonic Café.

PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE PLAYING THE SONIC CAFÉ ON YOUR STATION, WE’D LOVE TO ASSIST IN PROMOTION.

The Sonic Cafe features an intelligent, eclectic mix of music, comedy and pop culture showcasing 30 to 60 years of content within each episode.

The show is set in an imaginary cafe overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Central Oregon Coast. The cafe serves music, comedy and pop culture rather than breakfast, lunch and dinner. All announcer voiceovers are presented over the background noise of a busy cafe with references made to the café environment to create a theatre of the mind experience for listeners.

The program actually does originate from KYAQ radio located on the Oregon coast in the Pacific Northwest, so the imagery is not a huge stretch.

Each program is 58:00 minutes in length leaving room for station ID, promos and PSAs. Each episode is .mp3 encoded at a constant rate of 256kbps and ready for broadcast.

All episodes are evergreen; never focusing on time of year, weather, month, holidays, events etc. so each show is timeless. All music is presented in a no repeat format. Once a song airs in an episode it never airs again. Episodes may be downloaded and grouped together to quickly create program blocks of two, three, four or more hours in length.

Original syndication date was 7/22/2016. At that time 31 shows had already been produced (over six months of content) with new episodes produced weekly. A new episode is released each week. You can confidently add The Sonic Cafe to your schedule knowing that a backlog of shows is already produced awaiting weekly release.

The Sonic Cafe has a Facebook page (facebook.com/SonicCafeRadio) where complete show notes and playlists are presented for each episode. The Sonic Café can also be streamed from MixCloud (mixcloud.com/SonicCafe1)

Listeners can also reach the show producers via email (SonicCafeRadio@gmail.com)

Pre-recorded Sonic Cafe promos are available to promote the show on your station. Each is roughly :24 seconds in length with time left to tag local broadcast day and time. We are also happy to produce custom promos, station IDs, etc. Contact us via email to request promo files. Also please let us know if you pick-up the program on your station so we can announce it on our Facebook page.
