A possibly racially motivated incident told using a research protocol for stimulating déjà vu. Told using the speech melodies of a woman I will never forget, it’s based on a drive through Gary, Indiana I’ve never been able to forget. Like I’d already seen it or something.

Erik Belgum's EBFN Radio is a fiction variety show influenced by neurological and psychological research protocols, Robert Ashley, Ernie Kovacs, speech pathology, Second City Television, noise music, P.T. Barnum, test patterns, Vic and Sade, and William Burroughs. Writes Belgum, "If my timing feels way off, well, that’s on you. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll feel like you’re going to throw up for hours and hours, but in a good way. In any case, it’s a win-win for me."
