As many of KUNM's DJs and volunteers are producing from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bodie Russell, a KUNM student employee, took a closer look and listen at the Home of Happy Feet. In late 2020 and early 2021, Russell interviewed Karl Stalnaker and Harry Norton to get a better understanding of what is so unique about the show, its history, the importance of vinyl records, and what the deejays have been up to lately. This culmination is a one-hour radio documentary called “Who Still Plays 78s?” A Home of Happy Feet Special.

Who Still Plays 78s? A Home of Happy Feet Special

The Ladies of the Lais: An Auditory Exploration of the Women in Marie de France’s Lais. 

UNM WMST 379 Final Project.

I think this format works because I get to act through characters to have a conversation about topics that we did or did not touch on in class. It also gives me a chance to analyze their characteristics and full story. In this, I summarize what their positions are within their lais and expand on it with their opinions of the lais. The characters I chose represent an all-around group: All women are noble in one way or another but still represent different social classes within that.
