shameless flornication

My friend, pkdan, is a crazy-cool hipster.

He's been producing and starring (pod jockeying?) in podcasts since January. You can find his florn podcast here and his caffeineland podcast (with another crazy hipster friend of mine, mhaithaca) here.

pkdan has not only seized a great opportunity in being one of the pioneers of what has the potential to be the Next Big Thing (tm), but he has done it with humor, grace, heart, and intelligence, and is truly a pleasure to listen to. (Even when he sings with jccohen, but don't tell either of them I said that.)

The thing about brushing elbows with bigtime stars is occasionally it ushers in your fifteen minutes (or 45 seconds) of fame. I was fortunate enough to wiggle my way into his latest broadcast, during which he was kind enough to read some of my prose.

It's strangely fantastic to hear my prose on someone else's lips. pkdan was the very first, and did it in a way that is sure to curl your toes as it did mine.

You should go listen. Really.
