Episode 294 – THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN

That means “The Other Side” is back, and it also means the debut of a ninth round of “Know Your Enemy” questions. It’s a good feeling going into November. More than once my guest for this talk mentions Episode 300, and I admit it’s been on my mind. It’s amazing to think I’ve been doing this for so long – and humbling to know that even just one person keeps coming back. I haven’t wanted to get carried away with plans because of both superstition and also an acute understanding the 300 episodes of Matineecast isn’t the same as 300 episodes of “All Things Considered”. Still I want to – and will – mark the occasion. Not long ago I watched as an institution that had hit a milestone needed to be talked into celebrating the milestone. I swore that would never be me. These days, anything worth celebrating is just that: worth celebrating. Time to think about 300. Any ideas?
