A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Ken was a great personality, and was wonderfully odd.

He only passed in 2019, at age 98. He seemed sharp, even into old age.

These segments made for NPR in the 80s are great. I found them on archive dot org a couple years ago but haven't put in the time to listen. Hearing these definitely nudges me to continue listening to the series.
