HOLY CRAP!

Crazy things are always going on, but this is exceptionally crazy > thank you, ubuweb

that's 40-some minutes of the most insane and bizarre radio I've ever heard. with Glenn Gould and Harry Brown (of Canadian Broadcasting Company tv and radio). They are Canadians. Glenn Gould is is described at one point on the CBC webpage as "a ham who enjoys dressing up and taking on different personas". It's disorienting. If you think it's too weird to be true, it is, sort of: Gould appears as himself, and all of the other characters. At one point early on, he references "the Salieri of chess," "reprobate inversion of the Kafka theme," and an article titled "Psychic Murder at the Chessboard" and shoots back at Brown in this exchange:

"C'mon now Glenn. Berezavsky didn't end up out on his feet with an xray-able concussion and the likelihood of scar tissue--"
--"how do you know he didn't!?"

The rest pretty much goes like this:

"you mentioned pugilists, and i felt sure you'd get on to that tack, so i interviewed up and coming dominican welterweight Dominico Pastrano"

"i must say i find musical terms emoursmously helpful in clarifying own's own relation to symbolic structure, don't you know."

Have at it.
