I’m Lisa, programming assistant and author of Life With Kevin (currently on hiatus while I wait for Kevin to do something interesting). Here’s a few things that I really dug this year:

Live at KEXP Volume 2 is on sale today! The music on the CD is amazing, but we’re also gonzo for the artwork, particularly the gnome. How many CDs have a gnome on the cover? Not many. We decided that our gnome needs a name, and asked listeners for their suggestions [...]

Kevin snacks throughout the day to keep his blood sugar up. His favorite snack is the bagel. He regularly comes in with a small paper bag filled with four bagels. The bagels are made by Zatz in West Seattle but Kevin picks them up at [...]

You may have heard Kevin talk about his basement. Those of who work with him every day are at least familiar with The Basement. It’s like the third member of the household. He talks about his basement the way we talk about our pets or our children. [...]
