LAURA VIERS is one of our favorite musicians. Not just because she has a beautiful, lilting voice or that Colin Meloy of the Decemberists called July Flame "the best record of 2010," or that she knows her way around a looping pedal. It's that just a genuinely nice person. You'll see if you come to the show tomorrow night (Saturday, December 4).

TODD LEVIN- Conan writer, comedian and co-author of Our Bodies, Our Junk, a "sex manual" with chapter titles like, "Sexual Intercourse: Everything Up to the Part Where You're On Opposite Sides of the Bed, Sobbing." FUNNY.


JUSTIN HOCKING - essayist, author and the Executive Director for the Independent Publishing Resource Center (IPRC)

And, as usual, host Courtenay Hameister, sketches from Faces for Radio Theater, music from house band Ralph Huntley and the Mutton Chops, and poetry from Scott Poole.
