Freakish NPR DJ of the Day

We checked into the show with "Cool, Dry Place" by the Traveling Wilburys (lemme mention that the fact that the first Wilbury's album is out of print is an absolute crime). Nothing special there. Good music but nothing spectacular.

After a couple of old standards, we got "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress". Good stuff.

A couple of non-descript songs later, "Everything is Cool" by John Prine.

I still hadn't picked up on the theme.

It was two songs later when "Cool" from West Side Story was followed by "Three Cool Cats" and the "Cool Jerk".

Wait, I think I'm starting to get the theory here. It's cool songs - sort of a Jeopardy category kinda thing.

Then the DJ stops by - having not said a single word in the forty-plus minutes we'd been hanging with the station - drops a list of every single song and artist for the past hour and says that the next hour would be summer songs.

Wait, it's a DJ whose theme is that each hour has a non-genre theme?
He does three hour shows...every week?
From his personal collection of music?

It's like he's my frickin' hero.

And all of his shows are available in streaming format?

Dude!
