This Island Earth
Sunday December 6th, 2020 with Rob Bitschofsky
New new new. From Afrobeat disco to Indian minimalism, it's all new stuff today.

Skip to Tracks
The show's a recording, as is the way these days. But I'll try to be around on the interactive if you have questions, comments, screeds or manifestos that you'd like to share.

Looks fantastic! i look forward to cooking up a huge batch of pasta sauce as the program progresses. q;^)

It's perfect for pasta, peebee!

1:11 PM, December 6th, 2020
oh no, not pb again
It could get lush and spicy! q;^)

1:25 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
I expect no less!

Hi Rob, Enjoying the music this afternoon—so is Clarice. She’s all curled up in a patch of sunlight.

2:01 PM, December 6th, 2020
S.A.M.
Pasta sauce—I was thinking of making that, too. T.I.E. The soundtrack to Sunday afternoons in the kitchen!

2:02 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey Shelly Ann and hi there, Clarice! Yup, This Island Earth is perfect for your Sunday cooking projects. The music cooks, you cook, everybody wins!

hillbilly
toasted peanut butter sands over wood fire here...& sticky djembe fingers ;-)

2:23 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
good to have you on the ride, hillbilly, sticky fingers and all!

2:25 PM, December 6th, 2020
yeah pb again
Holy *&%#@*& the new Sarathy & Upaj is sooooooo good!

2:34 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Very. Demands repeat listenings, so I don't mind playing a couple of tracks even though you played it here last week.

2:37 PM, December 6th, 2020
oh no!
HB: So good it could go with peanut butter, toasted over wood. q;^) Have you tried peanut butter + banana + green onions? Killer combo.

3:05 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Well, I sure haven't! I'll let you and the hillbilly sort it out among yourselves. But I have one question: do the green onions only go with the wood-fired smokey peanut butter sandwiches?

3:09 PM, December 6th, 2020
not again
HA! As long as the bread is good (hint: Bread By Us), and the bananas are fresh, all will be good! Over a wood fire seems like an amazing bonus -- i only have a toaster oven........... OK, now i am soooo hungry! The pasta sauce is well under way. Place just stinks of hungry....

3:22 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
In D is, of course, perfect music to simmer sauce by...

3:24 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
...low slow heat on simple ingredients to make a lush and complex end result.

3:25 PM, December 6th, 2020
....
Well, plus faaar too much garlic and basil! And a splash of red wine. q;^)

3:33 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
All perfectly essential, of course.

3:34 PM, December 6th, 2020
hb
peanut b goes straight on banana slices...geen onions in salad & fried eggs...mmmm...carbonara sauce best for revolution type hillbillys...hungry...gotta go! It was fun!

3:49 PM, December 6th, 2020
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
hillbilly, I'm pro-carbonara also. And Alfredo, if you do it yourself the right way. And peanut butter applied directly to bananas. Thanks for popping in today!
