Comments on: The Bat Segundo Show #50 http://www.edrants.com/the-bat-segundo-show-50/ a cultural website in ever-shifting standing Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:01:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Levi http://www.edrants.com/the-bat-segundo-show-50/comment-page-1/#comment-29812 Levi Sun, 16 Jul 2006 01:02:56 +0000 http://www.edrants.com/?p=3785#comment-29812 Oh, and I meant to say: good work standing up for us "little people" of the internet. Most of what Up said was excellent, but it's sad that he seems to be stubbornly holding on to this idea that all we do here on the internet is chat, misspell and post pictures to MySpace. I'm glad you let him know there's more here than MySpace. Overall, though, I think Updike came off very well, and in my opinion this is the best Bat Segundo interview of them all. Congrats on the big fifty. Oh, and I meant to say: good work standing up for us “little people” of the internet.

I think you even elicit a grunt of intrigued recognition from Updike when you ask about the three examples of visual sexual imagery. I bet that doesn't happen too often with J-Up. Well well done and worth the extended wait. I second the comment above — a remarkable performance.

I love how deep your questions go, how well you hold up your end of the conversation. I learned a lot just listening to your follow-ups for Updike. I think too many interviewers, myself included, get dulled by proximity to a great writer. You held up. It sounded like he was pretty impressed by the time you mounted your defense of the Internet. You made me want to check out Witches of Eastwick again, too often I just think about Updike as the Author of the Rabbit Books. Keep up the good work. Amazing.
