The first real show of the Lunch Special goes on tomorrow at noon. I’m quite excited about it. You can give it a listen online. The show is me with a Stanford professor or other community member. They bring music. We chat.

Tomorrow’s guest is Robert Harrison, Professor of Italian and Italian Literature. He’s bringing a bunch of an album by Gentle Giant. I don’t know that band, but it’ll prove to be interesting.

The schedule’s filling out quite nicely for the quarter. I’ve asked a few people for the open dates in December, so hopefully we can fill the rest of the quarter out nicely as well.
