What's more, Miss Case has revealed exclusively to Pitchfork her plans to boldly venture into the wild world of podcasting. Neko tells all:

"I've wanted to have a radio show forever," Case continued. "Now that there's podcasts...I can actually have [one]. And you can do whatever you want, like satellite radio. You can swear. You don't have to know what you're talking about. You can make shit up. You can play vinyl that nobody's ever heard. You can play ‘Gold Digger' by Kanye West next to Bessie Griffin and the Gospel Pearls next to some Disney kids' record, along with Bulgarian folk singing. You can have it all in one show...I'm very excited about it."

"For the last two days I've been here with my friend Phil who's the sound engineer for the New Pornographers and for me. We've just been downloading my vinyl collection into the computer and I can't get my head around it. It's like, ‘How am I gonna make this radio show and not make it seem like I'm completely nuts?'"

Case hopes to have her Nekocast up and running at a newly-revamped (and looooong overdue) nekocase.com, ideally within the next few months. Until then, tech-savvy friends, keep your Nanos at the ready.
