All Things Whad’ya Know!
Whad’ya Know –Pod Much, You?–live darn near most Saturdays, 10 am Central, around midnight in Seoul via facebook.com/whadyaknow.net/
And–It’s All the Podcast You Need! https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/whadya-know-podcast/id1164743623?mt=2
How do we do it? We live-cast on most Saturdays at 10am Central (sound familiar) to the Whad’ya Know Podcast Facebook page while using the oldest telephonic technology to let you call us and us (sic) call you, and news-makers, filmmakers, wine-makers, sign-makers, scientists of every -ology, humorists, writers, readers, critics, everybody’s a critics, water-colorists, oils & pastels–this guy’s the limit! All this and the Mother of All Quizzes the Whad’ya Know Quiz and the only Fake News you can believe in All the News That Isn’t!
Plus, Lyle has been let out of his soundproof booth and takes over the show every time. He can’t help it, he’s that erudite, which I can’t even use in a sentence.
Think about it–you can watch & enter into the live video on Facebook, then, later the same Saturday, after meticulous editing, listen to the Podcast on iTunes. But, wait, there’s more–you can join the show in progress at A House of A Guy’s Own in Madison and, if nothing else, snarf up a free donut & a cuppa!
If it gets any better than this I’d be surprised!
Talk to you soon, Michael
Whad’yaNauts!

I don’t know where to begin. Ok, I do know…Brule. That’s where I started deer hunting in 1989. Deer avoiding, really. I would play along with my intense hunting buddies, march into the woods in the cold darkness, then plot my escape…back to my truck, hoping not to be seen or heard. By 7:30 am I was driving aimlessly, finding hot coffee where I could…Lake Nebagamon, Iron River, Barnes, Gordon…pastry, as well (duh!)…while deer avoiding, I discovered WYK…OMG! It began a 27 year tradition…not just during deer season…every Saturday! I have told quite a few people that this show being axed hurts more than if the remaining members of my nuclear family died….that’s the family I was born into, right? Not the family I had some choice in (wife), and then made my own (kids)…don’t want them gone, but the others. Don’t want them gone, but would trade their lives for WYK…sounds harsh, but you need to get to know them….
Anywell, I am still grieving. My weekend walks on Park Point here in Duluth aren’t the same. I was old enough (23) when I found WYK to know what I had…I relished it for those 27 years, never took it for granted…life was NEVER better than to hear Michael Feldman burst out laughing…truly…magical…perfection. Thanks.

I’m not the most techy person, so wasn’t sure how the Podcasts would work. I still don’t have a cellphone, and finally got off dial-up a few years ago. I had subscribed, and was expecting that they’d be loaded into an e-mail, or they’d be some kind of notice. I haven’t heard anything. How does this work?

I was mopping the family room floor on a Saturday, listening to the show on KPCC, when that exchange took place.

While it did seem like high drama at the time (I was mopping the floors, remember…), it was also disconcerting and may have been the only time I’d ever heard Michael Feldman at a loss for words.

Hi Michael,
My name is Sam. I am a frequent drinking buddy of Lance, that guy who sometimes calls you late at night from Paddy’s Pub in Songtan, S. Korea. Lance and I have been friends for about 10 years now (more or less).
The next time he calls, ask him about how his wife Laika (Lie-ka) is doing. Ask him if Laika is still on the pool team at the Station Club.
Tell him you haven’t seen Laika in years. Play it any way you
want to play it.
Lance will be so confused, he won’t even know how to respond.
Be prepared for awkward moments of silence.
Regards,
Sam

Hi Michael. I’ve listened since I discovered your show in the late 80’s. It was my Saturday Morning mow the grass show. Loved the format, and the easy going, friendly style. You don’t get that anymore. Today’s radios hosts don’t know what it is to take a breath, and really listen to the person they’re interviewing.
Anyway, I was really sad and angry when it went off the air. I didn’t realize until just a few weeks ago that you had turned it into a podcast. So I’m backtracking and watching on YouTube and Facebook. It’s great to hear your voice, and see the whole gang!
I liked the High Noon Saloon shows. Seemed like everyone had a good time. The latest shows with you and Lyle are a hoot. I know early on you said you didn’t know the YouTube/Facebook technology, but you’ve done a great job with it. Hopefully Stephanie will stop by for some of your shows.
Thanks for getting your archives online for everyone to hear. And for keeping the show going.
(And, just so you know, I went into “Refiredment” last June. Seems experience and hard work don’t count as much as they used to)
All I can say is Thank You for everything.
Bruce.

Are you *sure* this was on Whad’ya Know… with an accordion? You may have it right–but I’m also wondering if you’re thinking of Madeleine Peyroux, who did the best-known cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Dance Me to the End of Love” during the WYK years. She did not, at least often, perform with accordion, but she did it with a small jazz combo that had an accordion-type sound on disk:
Ms. Peyroux also performed it live on NPR’s “Prairie Home Companion” on 2009-12-19.
If I’m off here, happy hunting, and I hope somebody else steps up with a better ID for you.

The version I recall, well, thought sure it was on “Whadya Know” …but.. on whatever radio program I heard it,.. the performance really touched me..and to my recollection, there was only a singer and accordion…don’t remember any other instruments…vivid recollection of the accordion.

Dear Michael,
In the world of World’s BEST holiday gifts, I’ve been hoping to see your archives updated to 2006-2007 when our daughter was chosen from the audience because she claimed to be a 9-year-old goth girl (much to the surprise of her parents.) You interviewed her. I’ve been wanting to surprise her with the clip of your interview, but my frequent checks with your archive indicate that they have not been updated at all for a while now.
Is there any chance at all that this particular clip could be found? Or, is there any chance you will be updating your archives so that I can find it? I’m remaining hopeful that I can provide that awesome surprise in December when I play the clip for her. She is now 22 and never became an actual Goth Girl…that we know of… It would be a precious piece of family history. 🙂 Whad’ya think?

You said it yourself on the first show in national syndication in the former “APHC” timeslot…

You were right!
It took a bit of time to get used to “WYK” and your style of humor but your QUICKLY won us “Public Radio” addicts over and MOST of us stuck with you until YOUR show ended its run here in the NYC area.
I’m a bit of a “geezer” (Tail end BABY BOOMER) so I’m just learning to navigate these new “smart” things we’re all supposed to use to communicate with each other these days.
I was delighted to find your show, like almost EVERYTHING else is archived and available for “CALL UP” now! I’m looking forward to clicking away on your “links” to hear them again.
So sorry to learn of the passing of your longtime announcer JIM PACKARD. He was a real professional! Your bandleader “Jeff” Tolin and his musical numbers were always a highlight and fun to hear each week too!
Hope you’ll return to your LIVE show again. Perhaps even for a limited run “tour” or one shot “reunion” broadcast.
Either way? Thanks for the hours of enjoyable listening you provided! Being a native NYer (Bronx born) both your show and Garrison Keillor’s gave a window and gave people like me a peek into a culture, a part of our great and oh so varied nation which I probably NEVER would’ve been exposed to otherwise.
Best of wishes to you and good luck in ALL your ventures.
