This coming Friday, at midnight Pacific time, Kim Cooper, the author of the 33 1/3 book on Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea as well as the editor of Scram Magazine, will be a featured guest on KXLU's Stray Pop with Stella (88.9 FM). Ms. Cooper will be appearing with Nathan Marsuk, with whom she runs a website about true crime stories from L.A.'s storied past (1947project.com), as well as gives a bus tour. But one of her deep and abiding interests is Elephant 6 in general and Neutral Milk Hotel in particular, and her book on Aeroplane is required reading for any Elephant 6 fan. She plans on discussing NMH on Friday night, and encourages you folk to call in and discuss with her. In addition, she'll be playing some NMH tunes, and you can make a request in this Townhall thread, where she made the announcement. Stray Pop with Stella will stream on KXLU's website.

A few months ago Kim appeared with Aeroplane producer Robert Schneider on WNYC's Soundcheck to discuss her book on NMH back in March. You can listen to the archived broadcast here.
