Von Buck,

I checked the stream via PC and Mac -- seems to be running fine. Give 'er another go if you get the chance.

On a related note, a lot of folks have been asking for podcasts and MP3s. I'm working on a plan to have something in place by February along these lines. So I'll keep you posted!

Von Buck,

I'm stumped. I've tried the stream from a few different computers (mac and pc) and it seems to work fine. Checked with other listeners, and they seem to be getting through. One time when I had trouble with my Mac at home, I just downloaded realplayer for Mac OSX and reinstalled it. http://www.real.com/player/index.html?lang=en (click on the free version).

Not sure if that will help, but I hope so.

"Sex World, go on a spree"

Perhaps the greatest lyric of all time ; >)

(The extra bonus for us here in Minneapolis is that there's a 3-story dilapidated old adult toy store called Sexworld in the warehouse district. It has a giant vertical sign with the letters in bright red. You just can't help thinking of that place when you hear that tune! Alas, if it were only as good as the promise of that song...)

Hey Zombie,
i re-installed real player and everything's fine. Thanks for the help

Thanks.

I like the cut from the Polynesian Cultural Center's "Creation" which lists the tiki gods:

Ku, Kane ,Lono, Maui, etc.

I was there a few years ago and it took me back to an incredible vacation, particularly as I saw the show on my 40th Bday.

Funny, many parts of the North Shore, as well as some parts of Honolulu, remain in the 60s/70s, both good and bad.

Hi all,

Catch "The Elevator" a special 2-hour edition of Jet Set Planet, that aired Friday Night (Nov 10) from midnight to 2am. You can hear the show streaming at

OMIGOD! I just went to KFAI.org and it simply says, "Glen bids a fond farewell to Friday Mornings." It doesn't say anything about switching to another night/time! I haven't listened in a while and I got all anxious and twitchy at the thought of no Jet Set!

Hi everyone,

HIGHLIGHTS from Jet Set Planet, August 6th, 2007:

  • Dean Elliott's Zounds! What Sounds! introduces us to a Lonesome Old Town with a burping ogre for a tour guide.

  • More requests for Rod McKuen -- have my listeners lost their minds? (Don't answer that!)

  • Some very weird Duke Ellington from his LP "A Drum is a Woman."

  • Plus a 6-song homemade crime jazz "soundtrack" for your imaginary story of debauchery, mayhem, and chaos. But don't worry, there's a happy ending.

Hi everyone,

I was on vacation for two weeks, and just blew back
into town! In my absence, two sensational KFAI-ers
took the reigns for Jet Set Planet:

Broadway Joe on Aug 13

Sherwood of Sherwood's Planet on Aug 20.

Check 'em out in the KFAI archives.

And be sure to tune in next week, August 27th, for the
GREATEST song ever recorded: Shorty Rogers'
"Wampuskitty" from the soundtrack to the film "Bug
In."

Hi everyone,

The Higher-Than-Fi Team smuggles a suitcase full of vinyl back from the East Coast!

  • Don Costa's Freeloaders show us how to break a sub-lease

*The Boston Baked Beans lend a little "striptease" to the evening!

  • And don't forget Shorty Rogers' Wampuskitty - The Greatest Song Ever Recorded.
