Check Your Shelf: The Oakland Public Library Podcast Oakland Public Library Made possible by a Friends of the Oakland Public Library mini-grant, Check Your Shelf: The Oakland Public Library Podcast, invites listeners to take an inside look at OPL. Community Relations Librarian Amy Martin brings you inside the walls to get to know the library as a friend. The first season will feature six episodes diving into the different places, programs, and initiatives that make OPL truly special. Checkin The Boys This is a self-proclaimed "album" (in technical terms, an EP) featuring covers of popular songs that I like, as well as a single parody by popular demand. You will notice that every song has about a maximum of 5 chords. This is intentional. I have very little talent, a poor singing voice, and an even worse microphone to record it all on. Enjoy(?) Full Track List:1. Creep - Radiohead2. Polly - Nirvana3. Weezer Power Hour (Undone + Say it Ain't So) - Weezer4. Where Is My Mind? - The Pixies5. Viva La Vida - Coldplay6. Out Like a Light - The Honeysticks7. Pretty Manly - Carly Jepsen/Me Get Curious Kate Helen Get ready for a reality check! This is the Get Curious podcast, hosted by the no-nonsense Kate.
