There's been an historic shake-up at KDNM and Joanne is feeling the pressure. Heavy is the head that wears the cuties. Luckily Colorado is just as lovelorn as New Mexico as Josie greets her new constituents: a beer-goggled burglar, a sleep-deprived scribe, a history buff with a new baby, and a stone-cold hottie just looking for a little wetwork.
The show was created by Maximilian Clark and Rachel Music. Our callers this week featured the talents of Miranda Warzel, Dana DeRuyck, Neill Fleming, Meghan Falcone, and Shawn Ahmed. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger.
Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 2nd-best romantic advice call-in show. On-air, listeners eavesdrop as Josie (Rachel Music, How Do They Bone?) squares off against top improvisers and her engineer Frank (Maximilian Clark, Superhuman Public Radio). Each episode’s off-air vignettes chart her journey from melancholy Joanne Holtzinger to nationally syndicated sensation Josie Heller. What results is an often hilarious and surprisingly human show exploring the risks we idiots take every time we fall in or out of love.
