HV025- Heat

Hearing Voices from NPR®:
025 Heat— Lazy-Hazy-Crazy Days of Summer
Host— Scott Carrier of Hearing Voices
Airdates— 8/20/2008 – 8/27/2008

Five symptoms of heat fatigue:

A sound-poem for “Dead of Summer” in the city by Marjorie Van Halteren and Lou Giansante, read by Russell Horton.

Tuscon residents reflect the desert “Heat,” with author Charles Bowden, poet Ofelia Zepeda, and music by Steve Roach; produced by Jeff Rice.

The perfection of family, a crippled man on a blind man’s back, and a collective scream of “I’m not dead,” sweat it out in Joe Frank’s “Summer Notes.”

Cats pulling pianos are “The Little Heroes” in John Rieger’s Dance on Warning series.

And host Scott Carrier takes a long hot cross-country drive down “Highway 50,” the loneliest road in America.

Music by The Lovin’ Spoonful and Flying Lizards.
