A photo of New Orleans drummer Uncle Lionel Batiste, dressed to the nines in a suit, bowler hat, sunglasses and multiple rings. He has a couple of hundred dollars in cash pinned to his suit. Text: Make a pledge to support The Crescent City Connection and keep WFMU funky!

It's time to pin a few dollars on the Crescent City Connection show - not for a birthday, but to support WFMU's fundraiser marathon! On the next two weekends I'll be spinning great NOLA jams and asking you to support the freeform station of the nation!

One of the greatest half hours of my life was appearing on Uncle Floyd’s show in ‘92. Floyd was a wonderful guy. Joe Franklin sued him for a “Joe Frankfurter” bit in the late 70s. I witnessed Floyd asking Joe why he sued him at a Danny Stiles dinner many years later:

Floyd: Why, Joe?
Joe: Show biz!
