1018/23 Show 177 : For A Long Time I Thought It Was Called "The Ideal Coffee"

The Gerard Cosloy Radio Hour (That Feels Like Two Hours)

Last week’s passing of thespian/comic powerhouse Suzanne Somers was noted far and wide, in particular her pivotal role in shepherding the career of the reunited Wire in 1987. As you all know, it was not a relationship that would stand the test of time ; Somers’ insistence that inviting Ex-Lion Tamers to support Wire’s first US tour in many years was “the worst idea ever” didn’t go down well and the rest is history. Except for the part where Somers claimed Sandy Hook mass murderer Adam Lanza was unduly influenced by the fumes of home cleaning products. Maybe that didn’t really need to happen.
On this week’s show, I’ve attempted to dive into all of the above topics and if I’ve only managed to gloss over a few of them, hey, there’s something in this business known as TIME LIMITATIONS.
