Nowah Jacobs's Can-Do Attitude

Lazersaurus is an institution on WFHB, which itself is an institution in Bloomington, Indiana. It’s a music and comedy program hosted by a guy named Dave with weekly guests every Tuesday from 11pm to 1am. After almost two years of perfect attendance, he needed the night off and I was honored to fill in.

On this “cover version” of Lazersaurus, Lazerpointersaurus, I tried to do right by Dave and asked my friends Allison, Michael, and Andrew to join me in the studio for a few hours of music and comedy.

We did our best. I think our best was pretty good.

Some of you may have heard one or both of these before. In the interest of diversifying the offerings Nowah Jacobs has been proven to provide, they are presented together here for the first time. Expect new content soon.

Alex Evans is a Bigfoot expert from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Her segment was adapted from a full length interview produced for Rhino’s Youth Radio’s Mixed Nuts Podcast in 2011.

Kate Wall is an editor from Delaware. Her segment was produced for an independent project with I Live Sweat in 2012.

An interview! Mike Carmichael of Alexandria, Ind., is the proprietor of the world’s largest ball of paint and a very sweet man. I “sat down” with him on January 17, 2013.

I would like to extend massive thanks Caroline Tompkins for the inspiration.

(We really did sit down.)

Nowah Jacobs’s Can-Do Attitude is a new podcast. I am very sorry about that.

In the first installment, I explain the concept of the thing with Jason Sims, known as Jason from Huntsville by Best Show on WFMU fans. He also hosts Jason Sims Puts You In Your Place for Slice Radio and Jason Sims Is Calling You, the latter of which I produce.

Stay sweet,
NJ
