This is what we call a shorty. After the duration and weight of the previous episode, Aaron and Ira spend significantly less time covering a greater variety of topics than usual, beginning with Aaron’s plans for the estival solstice, and moving on to a meaningful recent conversation with their mutual friend and collaborator, the weird internal logic of the song “Doctor Worm” by They Might Be Giants, and an invented experimental Chinese restaurant. This leads to some discussion of the strange ways that time moves now (“now” being either the post-pandemic era or middle age, or both), the economic impact and non-impact of the pandemic shutdown, and its salutary culinary ripple effects in Chicago and Paris. Marking their milestone 9th episode, which statistically most podcasts never get beyond, they propose a new device to thread episodes together, without sacrificing the podcast’s signature indeterminacy. Before this shorty concludes, some awkward attempts to lure sponsorship deals are made, and both Aaron and Ira somehow manage to draw a blank on the word “proliferation”.

Music:
“Open Up Your Heart” by Roger Miller (a song which features the show’s namesake lyric). arranged and recorded especially for JIALIO by 80 Foots, Chicago’s only End Times Vocal Trio.

“Open Up Your Heart” by Buddy Killen + Roger Miller
Arranged and recorded by: 80 Foots (https://www.facebook.com/80FPM)
