Darla Jaye is one of the funniest and most talented radio people I’ve ever worked with, but after leaving radio she had an almost Biblical string of calamities hit her all at once. But she came out the other side laughing and ended up becoming a viral sensation after she beat cancer and responded very enthusiastically to ending her treatments. Seriously, she was everywhere, even if you didn’t know who you were watching at the time. I wanted to talk with Darla about what it was like to survive cancer and then see yourself pop up on TV constantly for a week.

Sean Magers and Keith Conrad are on a mission to re-watch The Twilight Zone, sharing their reactions and a little trivia along the way. The pilot episode was “Where is Everybody?”

Please wash your hands and practice social distancing as we look forward to the inevitable Ken Burns documentary on PBS after this is all over.

I wanted to talk to Ken about what the process is like to take part in a Presidential debate, and then what it was like when suddenly he became the most famous man in viral media for a few days.
