Flak Radio no.100 | Live From The Ritz
James Norton and Taylor Carik take the show to the Ritz Theater, anchor of the northeast Minneapolis arts district.
(For a lovely set of photos documenting the experience, check out Becca Dilley's Flickr stream.)
Electric Arc Radio's Geoff Herbach (author of The Miracle Letters of T. Rimberg) introduced the show.
Jim, Taylor, Adam and Eric shared a toast of prosecco kindly donated by the Ritz and kicked off the show. Next up: Pioneer Press tech writer Julio Ojeda-Zapata, author of Twitter Means Business. Then: an insane 30" pizza challenge sponsored by Randy's Premier Pizza, dough tossing by championship pizza slinger Randy Hueffmeier, a #1 Billboard Hit music quiz and general frivolity. Finally, Niggtistics with Eric Nigg and a rousing send-off.
As per usual for these things, a grand time was had by all.
Stream individual segments below or listen to the entire show as a single mp3 podcast.
