As some of you know, I’ve been incred­i­bly for­tu­nate to join the cast and crew of Wits. Wits is a radio show, record­ed live at the beau­ti­ful Fitzger­ald The­ater in down­town St. Paul, MN. It’s in the tra­di­tion of Prairie Home Com­pan­ion, sort of, in that it’s a radio show with music, com­e­dy, and nos­tal­gia, although the nos­tal­gia is maybe less wist­ful Amer­i­cana and more geeky-hipsterish.

Any­way — the line­up for the spring sea­son has been announced, and it is ridicu­lous. RIDICULOUS:

³⁄₁₅ Paula Pound­stone with Robyn Hitch­cock
³⁄₂₉ W. Kamau Bell with Bren­dan Ben­son
⁴⁄₁₂ Kris­ten Schaal with Rufus Wain­wright
⁴⁄₁₉ Tig Notaro with Kath­leen Edwards
⁴⁄₂₅ Michael Ian Black with A.C. New­man
⁵⁄₃ Pat­ton Oswalt with Ben Lee
⁵⁄₁₀ Rob Delaney with Neko Case and Kel­ly Hogan
⁵⁄₃₁ Col­in Han­ks with Jason Isbell
⁶⁄₇ Han­ni­bal Buress with Open Mike Eagle
⁶⁄₁₄ David Koech­n­er with Metric

The biggest perk of being in the house band is I get to make music with most of these amaz­ing artists — need­less to say I’m pret­ty excit­ed. You can read more about the show and buy tick­ets here.
