I have a pair of stories this week. One is about my family’s connection to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The other is about the first time I met Adam West. There’s some music here for you, too.

• Radio Free Burrito doesn’t work as hard to earn its [EXPLICIT] tag as Memories of the Futurecast did, but it still manages to upset mom and get Twitter breakup messages from sensitive people. You have been warned.
• This week’s theme music is On Your Radio by the great Joe Jackson.
• Yes, I said it was 2007. Welcome to time travel. Try not to get upset.
• My great grandmother, in 1965.
• Her obituary.
• My great grandfather’s biography.
• The Battle of Chavez Ravine.
• The old Los Angeles Zoo is worth exploring.
• I forgot to share thoughts on the Stanley Cup final. The short version is that the Preds got hosed by a quick whistle, but a team that can’t score with a two-man advantage in an elimination game doesn’t deserve to win the Stanley Cup. That’s the whole reason we have playoffs.
• Jonathan Coulton‘s Smoking Monkey, and his new record Solid State.
• Jonathan and Aimee Mann are on tour RIGHT NOW!
• King Tubby‘s incredible Dub Reggae discography.
• I forgot to tell you how Anne’s doing: she’s recovering without complications, and is feeling better every day.
• The Trojan Dub Box Set is a good place to start, if you’re interested.
• I was behind the camera when Kaley posed for this picture with Adam West. He was so into it, and thought it was as funny as we did.
• The Letter / La Carta.
• Los Nuggetz is an amazing compilation, and the liner notes, pictures, and artwork make it very much worth your while to purchase as a physical thing.
• This episode is 1h05m long and 93.9MB.
• This is the end of the notes.
