From a skeletal homesteader cabin on a cold Mojave night, it’s the annual Desert Oracle Christmas Special. New Mexico writer Anna Merlan joins us to talk about the winter holidays in Santa Fe. New solstice sounds by RedBlueBlackSilver.
Tonight at 10 p.m., from Amboy to Zzyzx on Z 107.7 FM, or streaming from Z1077FM.com or streaming via Tune In or get the free podcast.
Merry Christmas, pigs.
A new show for Friday night, yes! And on SUNDAY, 12/6/2020, join Ken Layne and Anna Merlan for a Skylight Books virtual event, where we’ll be telling ghost stories and reading something weird from the new book and talking with you, if you choose to talk to us. Virtually, sadly. No whiskey & kissin’. Maybe next time. And we don’t know who “Lockdown Willie” is, either. It just sounded good.
Whatcha doing this Sunday? Join us as we travel to the virtual Mojave with @Desert_Oracle, @JoinTheDynasty and @annamerlan at 6pm PT!
We’ll have campfire tales and desert lore galore 🌙

Oh and this one, Wednesday evening at (virtually) McNally Jackson in New York: A conversation about the desert and probably everything else, with New York Times style editor Choire Sicha, famously of The Awl and Gawker and many other things.
Listen to tonight’s show, Episode #112, on the FM radio, from Amboy to Zzyzx (Fridays at 10 p.m. on Z 107.7 FM), or streaming from Z1077FM.com or streaming via Tune In or get the free podcast. Hey and if you listen on the radio, there’s a bonus episode after that. A repeat, yes, but it’s nice to hear a couple of shows together on the radio. New soundscapes from RedBlueBlackSilver, and don’t forget to check out his new album, Five Flora.
OUR BOOK IS OUT ON DECEMBER 8, pre-order from your favorite bookseller today & you’ll have the book as soon as it’s out.
Not only a new episode 10 p.m. tonight on KCDZ 107.7 FM in Joshua Tree, but an hourlong episode: “The Other Room,” in which we engage in the sort of late-night desert-talk-radio conversation that we need & you need: Intuition, LSD, Carl Jung, the “Conscious Life” expo, gods and monsters, desert ley lines, etc. Our guest is the New Mexico/New York/Los Angeles author and journalist Anna Merlan, who reports from the Land of the Weird.
New soundscapes tonight by RedBlueBlackSilver. Thanks always & especially to our patrons. Turn up the radio
Listen to the podcast or listen at 10 p.m. Friday nights on the radio: KCDZ 107.7 FM in the High Desert. We’re on Spotify, too. And Pandora and Stitcher and iHeart & all the rest. Get Anna’s fantastic new book, Republic of Lies, wherever you get the books. May Saint Minerva bless and keep you, always. ❇️
10 p.m. tonight, Z 107.7 FM, it’s a new episode all about the conspiracies. We speak with Anna Merlan about her new book, REPUBLIC OF LIES. There was apparently a “UFO social club” in the High Desert, too, and we have the proof. Unless it has been redacted. (And why was Jeremy Corbell phoning in??)
