so I poked around on the forums and found that the show's editor, Tim, is responsible for the funky breaks used in the bumpers between segments of the show. his picks are one of my favorite parts of the program, and usually when I don't know what he's dropping, I can use shazam or soundhound or some similar music ID-ing program to figure it out.
but there's an interstitial that I LOVED in the "you bet your bippy" show from last week, but the services can't identify it. which means that it might be rare. which means that I've got to know what it is even more now--it's the one that starts at 31:38 on the podcast edition of the show, the one with the flute and rhodes piano.
what is this song? Martha and Grant, can you let Tim talk to us?
and I saw someone had suggested putting info on the interstitials in the program notes, or even just somewhere on the site... this would be amazing.
thanks, folks.
Good call, drasil.
Drasil, as part of our reporting requirements we post the credits for our music on PRX (a service that distributes content to stations, just one of several ways we do it).

It's only going to show for the most recent episodes, though (including Bippy) and they're not marked for where in the show the songs appear:

Tim, by the way, is in like six bands here in San Diego. Here are just three things he's been involved with:
By the way, Tim's getting married in two weeks! 🙂
Glad you enjoy it, drasil!
Yep, we're lucky that our technical editor, Tim Felten, also happens to be a professional musician (he plays a smokin'-hot Hammond) and weaves in great tunes for us.
Eventually we hope to put all that info on our own site each week, but for now, you can always stop by our page on PRX.org (Public Radio Exchange) and scroll all the way down to the bottom, as here:

Rock on!
