He was 60. Lots of intense eulogies will follow New York Anime Fest in the days to come: He's an excellent jumping-off point for an "Old New York City vs. New 2009 New York City" screed, the danger and grit and volatility we've lost, and how much we should miss it. (No question Carroll is irreplaceable, and if this news gives you the powerful urge to hear a hot-shit live band blaze through "People Who Died," the Drive-By Truckers are your ticket.) But the first last word here should come from Jim himself: It'll hit hard right about now, but "8 Fragments for Kurt Cobain" is the way to go. Closing statement: "That is always the cost/As Frank said/Of a young artist's remorseless passion/Which starts out as a kiss/And follows like a curse." R.I.P.

Three Little Words and the Critical Argument of The Best Show on WFMU 1 Three Little Words and the Critical Argument of The Best Show on WFMU Thomas Britt 1 Brevity is not the first word that comes to mind when thinking of comedian Tom Scharpling’s The Best Show on WFMU.1 A listener-supported show on an independent, free form radio station, The Best Show was on the air from 2000 to 2013 for three hours weekly. In a media age saturated with podcasts hoping to keep a listener engaged for twenty minutes, The Best Show defined long-form radio comedy for more than a decade as its popularity grew internationally through physical releases, streams and downloads. 2 Scharpling often summarized the content of his show as “three hours of Mirth, Music, and Mayhem”.2 The most memorable moments of The Best Show combined all three qualities at once, featuring madcap humor about music.

  • It Reveals Who I Really Am”: New Metaphors, Symbols, and Motifs in Representations of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Popular Culture
    “IT REVEALS WHO I REALLY AM”: NEW METAPHORS, SYMBOLS, AND MOTIFS IN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS IN POPULAR CULTURE By Summer Joy O’Neal A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Angela Hague, Chair Dr. David Lavery Dr. Robert Petersen Copyright © 2013 Summer Joy O’Neal ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There simply is not enough thanks to thank my family, my faithful parents, T. Brian and Pamela O’Neal, and my understanding sisters, Auburn and Taffeta, for their lifelong support; without their love, belief in my strengths, patience with my struggles, and encouragement, I would not be in this position today. I am forever grateful to my wonderful director, Dr. Angela Hague, whose commitment to this project went above and beyond what I deserved to expect. To the rest of my committee, Dr. David Lavery and Dr. Robert Petersen, for their seasoned advice and willingness to participate, I am also indebted. Beyond these, I would like to recognize some “unofficial” members of my committee, including Dr. Elyce Helford, Dr. Alicia Broderick, Ari Ne’eman, Chris Foss, and Melanie Yergau, who graciously offered me necessary guidance and insightful advice for this project, particularly in the field of Disability Studies. Yet most of all, Ephesians 3.20-21. iii ABSTRACT Autism has been sensationalized by the media because of the disorder’s purported prevalence: Diagnoses of this condition that was traditionally considered to be quite rare have radically increased in recent years, and an analogous fascination with autism has emerged in the field of popular culture.

We’re looking to learn more about how and why you listen to Bullseye and other NPR podcasts. We have a survey up at NPR.org/podcastsurvey. We wanna hear from folks who’ve been listening to us for years and from folks who are tuning in for the first time. In short, you. It’s quick. It’s anonymous. It’s easy.

The Brat Pack, as you may know, is a term for a group eight or so actors who starred in about a dozen movies in the 1980s, in various configurations. There is Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, Demi Moore, a bunch of others. And among them, Andrew McCarthy. McCarthy starred in St. Elmo’s Fire, played Molly Ringwald’s love interest in Pretty in Pink. Beyond the Brat Pack movies, McCarthy also performed in Mannequin, The Joy Luck Club, and another ‘80s classic, Weekend at Bernie’s.

The format hasn’t really changed much since it began. Tom plays music. He interviews folks, takes calls from listeners, hangs up on listeners, and once in a while his buddy, Jon Wurster, calls. Jon does characters. Sometimes, he’ll play a guy called Darren from Work. Sometimes it’s the Gorch, who says that he is the real-life inspiration for the Fonz.

  • The Celebrity Apprentice Premiere Recap: Tom Scharpling Shoots Fish in a Barrel
    The Celebrity Apprentice Premiere Recap: Tom Scharpling Shoots Fish in a Barrel By Tom Scharpling When the fine people at Vulture asked me to recap season eleven of The Celebrity Apprentice, the first thing I did was pick up the phone and call famed funnyman Paul F. Tompkins, who is currently doing a stellar job recapping American Idol for this very same website. Paul said that Idol was sometimes a challenge because there’s certain amount of redundancy in covering a singing competition. “You will not have that problem,” he predicted. “You’ll be shooting fish in a barrel.” And yes, recapping this show will be shooting fish in a barrel. Mentally ill fish. In a big glass barrel designed expressly for mentally ill fish. With a gun filled with mentally-ill-fish-killing bullets. I am well aware that the contestants appearing on Celebrity Apprentice are not doing the show against their will: This is not The Running Man. Or Rollerball. Or any of those movies in which people are forced to enter some sort of competition against their will. But there is something slimy about the whole thing. Unlike American Idol, which, underneath its gross plastic exterior, has some sort of purity at its core by asking, "Who is the best unknown singer in the United States?" Celebrity Apprentice exists to give the half-talented and once-famous another sliver of fame in exchange for publicly rubbing their face in a big, fat pile of shame. 1 Yes, I know that there are charities involved and it is truly great that some extremely deserving organizations will get both cash money and national exposure.

He has haphazardly attached a microphone to his laptop. Next to him is his friend AARON, and across from his is JULIE, a podcaster who has yet to be introduced. GRAHAM’s friends mill about behind him, sitting on a couch, playing with their phones, looking generally bored. GRAHAM Hello, folks. And welcome. My name is Graham, and this is a podcast. What is a podcast? Well. I guess it’s like a radio show. But you listen to it on your iPod or something like that. And it’s a place where all your dreams come true. We’ve got some great guests I think you’ll really enjoy listening to me bullshit around with in just a moment, but first, we have a very special portion of the show. The Preamble. This is a great segment where I, the host, get to talk about whatever the heck I want and whatever the heck is on my mind. It’ll just be really loose and fun and it’s gonna be loose and fun. I’ll talk about some of the interesting stuff that’s going on in my life right now. Uhh... Nothing really new with work I guess... just data entry stuff. A single hi-hat begins playing as the intro begins. 2. GRAHAM (CONT’D) Yeah. The preamble. A great place for my current thoughts and observations about my life. Uh..
