Noah Page’s Diary: “I got my first dose of the vaccine today. I feel fine except when I think about impoverished countries that won’t get the vaccine at all for months because of capitalism. Maybe they forgot to put the microchips in my one. Or maybe the vaccine is safe but pharmaceutical companies are actually doing other, totally different unethical things that are being reported on in the news and we should be worrying about that more than something your friend said on the internet.”
EarRelevant joins Noah Page on today’s show to discuss his new album, Emoceans, as well as how he got into rap and his origin story. We’ll hear several tracks from it throughout the show.
This is a rap show.

Secret Bonus Level presents:
Of course everbody remembers our famous Q & A episode from last summer. And then the other Q & A one after that where the answer to ever question was, “Eat an entire bag of frozen steamable broccoli,” which was one of my personal favorite episodes of this year.
Well, lol, here’s another one. This one is happening because I guess a few people didn’t realize the Q & A wasn’t some I planned to do forever, and sent me some more questions. Which is really fun and flattering, thank you! But, also, in case you can’t read between the lines: STOP SENDING ME QUESTIONS lol. I love you all so so very much but that’s not why I’m here. Ask your mom!
This is a rap show.

River City Limits presents:
Of course we all love no talking time. And we all love all local time. But today there’s a new horse in town. And her name is “No Bands”. That’s right! For TOO LONG have bands evaded the watchful eye of the new horse. But no longer. For now, at least, the age of the bands is brought to a rapid halt.
For TWO ENTIRE HOURS this beautiful Saturday evening you’re very FAVORITE Noah Page (thank you, thank you very much, yes I know, I think so too) brings you ALL MUSIC FROM OUR OWN VERY CITY, with also plus NO TALKING and now the brand new limited edition NO BANDS. I don’t know what you’ll do with yourselves.
But I know you will do it correctly.
