This week: Duncan and guest interviewer (who really does most of
the interviewing while Duncan slumbers) Anna Kunz talk to artist
and educator Jay Wolke! This entertaining and at times wacky
interview is not to be missed. As you listen to this you can think
to yourself; "I wonder what general zaniness was in the 10 minutes
Richard chopped out of this show for the purposes of brevity and
flow", but you can rest comfortable that most of it consisted of
Anna giving Duncan a hard time.
Do not miss the longest, most unfocused and rant laden
outro/credits in the history of the show, where Richard and Duncan
are interrupted by Buses, the El, a panhandler, and Richard's
spontaneous rant about a cop on a Segway smoking a cigarette. This
spawns a discussion about the ascendancy of "douchebag" in the
contemporary lexicon.
Wow. That is a lot of quality show!
Lifted shamelessly for somewhere else:
Jay Wolke is professor and chair of the department of art
and design at Columbia College Chicago, and the author of All
Around the House: Photographs of American-Jewish Communal Life.
Dominic A. Pacyga is a professor at Columbia College
Chicago, and the author and editor of numerous books on Chicago's
history, including Polish Immigrants and Industrial Chicago
and Chicago, both published by the University of Chicago
Press.
