Tonight, trusty cuties, the ratings are in. Moving on up? You better believe it. Josie offers the balm of her troubleshooting to a socialist with sticker shock, a radical rube, a burgeoning bearophobe, and one thirsty thespian. Take a trust fall behind the scenes as Frank and Joanne try to fly the coop away from the peevish gaze of Dr. Mark Hall. Our callers this week included Christopher Gebauer, Shane Snider, Tiffany Cornwell and Jenny Curtis. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger.

Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 2nd-best relationship call-in show. On-air, Josie (Rachel Music, How Do They Bone?) mends the broken hearts of a weekly collection of hilarious improvisers. Off-air, listeners get to eavesdrop on the life of Josie’s secret identity: shy, unassuming Joanne Holtzinger. Join Joanne and her puckish producer Frank (Maximilian Clark, Superhuman Public Radio), while they navigate the pitfalls of love and fame as the show slowly becomes a national sensation.

Nighty night, cuties.
