The Geeks Come Out At Night

NRR Radio ✪ 2009

NRR Radio was primarily a dance music station. However, it did have a few shows that combined talk with different genres of music. As The Wild World of Sex, Projeckt X, and The Throwdown were leaving the airwaves, more music shows like Cafe Euphoria, Meltdown, and The Pulse were joining the lineup. The only talk and variety show that was still around was The Kode & Nyte Show/The Sunday Nyte Show. As a result, Syrinx created The Geeks Come Out At Night. The concept was to have an open discussion with people of various fandoms while interacting with a chatroom audience. Each show would be on a different topic and would also include related songs and soundbites. The name was taken from the title of the song that was recorded by Devo Spice and the great Luke Ski. Permission was graciously given for not only that but to also use the track as the show’s theme song.

We then feature MARCon pt. 1, with interviews from: Nick & Linda (who run the convention), Spooner from the 501st Ohio Garrison, and the Ohio Writers Network (Michelle Rasey, Linda Robertson, Laura Bickle, and Faith Van Horne).
