This is SOME LIKE IT HOT, a Mixtape of music about all things that are Not Cold, an hour of songs about heat and warm places, and bands that celebrate this elusive phenomenon. Although sometimes it resorts to extremes, it is hoped that this sonic concoction delivers some measure of imaginary heat to the listener.

In this episode: Atomic 7, The Breeders, Calvin Davidson, Chrome, The Flaming Lips, Golden Shoulders, Hot Hot Heat, Howe Gelb, James Kochalka, Kudu, Le Tigre, Monsieur LeRoc, Polysics, The Raging Teens, The Soft Boys, Southern Culture On The Skids, Warm Wires
