I’m heading out.
We got through some of it. Not all.
Marla stacked a couple things, left the rest where they were. Said it’s easier to pick up again when you don’t pretend it’s finished.
She’s probably right.
Til then, keep the songs going.
And the signal human.

Stay right there…

Oh… there absolutely is.
You’re on line three, caller.
I’m listening….
Alright… line’s yours.
What you got there?
Yeah, caller, I got you.
Marla got that look that’s telling me this one’s not trying too hard—
…good.
Let’s put it in.
Radioland’s easing off a bit tonight…
a few of you landing in the same pocket.
Send some through.
They were still running those shipping maps this morning—
same routes, same arrows.
…
Marla says this caller found something that don’t loop like that.
Go on.
I’m listening….
You ain’t waiting for clarity no more.

Hey… you made it through.
Go ahead—what’d you put on after you closed the news.
World’s been sitting a little heavier than usual tonight…
some things are hard to make sense of in the daylight,
never mind the dark.
let’s keep the room steady.
What up caller?
Marla looking down-and-out.
I’m listening….
There’s a song for this.
It builds beautifully—
in theory.
Yes caller.
I’m listening,,,,
Let’s move with this.

Weight, carried forward
…yeah. that’s the tone.
Before we roll on—
Suffer from Secondpour Uncertainty?
Too time-poor to pour two coffees…
when you are deciding something
Well—this hour’s sponsored by—
TwinSpout™.
Kettle with two spouts.
First pour’s your coffee.
Second one… comes out already decided.
TwinSpout™.
Right, then.
Hey—
We didn’t reset nothing.
Same levels from last time. Same note still sitting on the pad. Marla looked at it, then just slid her chair in and put her headphones on.
No “fresh start” talk.
Just… back at it.
Alright…
I’m heading out.
Nothing really turned tonight. Not in a big way.
But it didn’t slip either.
Marla left the board as is. No reset. No adjustment. Just… let it stand.
That feels about right.
Til then, keep the songs going.
And the signal human.
Here’s a surprising request.
Caller checking in from a late walk near Zalindi River.
Says the rhythm keeps pace with their steps.
You’re with Ink Radio… where Radioland slows down a little.
We’ll just let this set the mood
Caller says this song belongs in a room like this one.
Sounds right.
There’s always one song you almost don’t bring up…
til it’s playing.
👎🏾
👎🏾
Let this sit beside you instead of asking anything from you.
Marla moved this one to the head of the line. I’m listening, caller.
👎🏾
I hear you out there.
That one that changed hands down in Alabam… the one that spelled it out?
Sliding it onto the platter now.
Didn’t rewrite the words.
Rewrote the meaning.
Needle’s about to kiss the vinyl.
