ALICE NOT JOHN
Episode 14: A Fictional Radio Transmission
Guest: DJ Grazzhoppa
Host: Joeri Bruyninckx
A conversation I overheard in a record store:
Customer: “Do you have Coltrane?”
Record shop owner: “In the jazz section.”
Customer: “I mean Alice, not John.”
Record shop owner: “In the jazz section.”
ALICE NOT JOHN is the name of a fictional radio show. The idea is this: for every episode, I ask a musician the same questions. The answers I receive are the “playlist” of my fictional radio show. The questions are these:

Survivor – ‘Eye of the Tiger’
What’s your favorite shower sing-along song?
Henry Mancini – ‘The Pink Panther Theme’
