No 32: Tango X-ray
I had been planning to post another podcast episode this weekend, but when you conduct an interview show, it’s difficult to produce anything if you can’t reach your guests.
As I mentioned earlier, I already experienced a cancellation a couple of weeks ago. (It takes two to tango, but it only takes one guest detour through Buenos Aires to trip up a production schedule.) I was slated to interview a different guest last week, but was forced to reschedule twice when he came down with a cold, then nursed a residual cough that would have made recording unpleasant for guest and listener alike.
That persistent cough was later diagnosed as pneumonia, and my guest was immediately dispatched to a hospital bed. The interview is on hold until after Punxsutawney Phil does his thing. April may well have been the cruelest month for old Tom Stearns, but on the vocal front, January is proving to be anything but kind. I just hope the groundhog looks over his shoulder later this week and sees a long line of healthy guests for me.
