In a rare dispatch from his Introvert Lair, Jedi Knight Journalist and Best Gay Uncle Ever Joe Brown joins the show to drop some of his favorite ambient tracks on the air. Joe's co-Dj set includes upwards-of-seven-minute-long-songs from the likes of Gravenhurst, Marconi Union, Brian Eno -- as well as anecdotes of Joe's Morrissey interview gone horribly wrong.

Joe's journalism career began as a staff reporter with the Washington Post back in 1980 and continues these days as deputy managing editor for features and curated content at Re/code. Bay Area readers will remember Joe as the editor who led the re-PINK-ifying of the San Francisco Chronicle's Sunday Pink section in the early 2000s. I was lucky enough to work with Joe during some of those years - and am forever grateful for all the lessons he shared on how to "use the Force in journalism." Thanks, Joe!

P.S. In this episode, Joe also illustrates how GAY MEN DRAW VAGINAS.
