How do you plead? Tonight's show is inspired by favors, and Frank is on his knees trying to coax Joanne into his scheme. Joanne gets settled in the catbird seat as Frank, the dog, learns to beg. Our cuties spin stories of tit for tat involving an x-rated chore wheel, a prowling cougar, a friend cashing in his IOU and handywoman ready to do some mounting. Our callers this week included the talents of Ross Child, Meghan Falcone, Pat Harvey, and Hannah Schooner. 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 relationship call-in show. On-air, Josie mends the broken hearts of a weekly collection of hilarious improvisers. Off-air, listeners get to eavesdrop on the life of Josie’s secret identity: shy, unassuming Joanne Holtzinger. Join Joanne and her puckish producer Frank as they navigate the pitfalls of love and fame as the show slowly becomes a national sensation.
