go get them. if you use itunes, you can just search the itunes store for "FFM 2009", and the free podcasts will appear, or you can go here: www.calvin.edu/admin/sao/festival/2009/conference/, and click on a particular workshop to download/stream the audio.
i recommend the finn interview, the lupe/cornel west conversation, the hopper/bazan interview, the darnielle paper (by Micah Lott), the "hot soft lights" paper (by Erin Keane), the "separation sunday" paper (by Matthew Carillo-Vincent), and the david dark lecture-ish thing.
the hold steady runs through most, if not all of these presentations, and i found them all really great, despite not being a christian or anything. the Keane paper was particularly moving for me, for some reason--perhaps i didn't fully realize how much i cared for finn's characters. i was choking up, sitting in the laundromat yesterday listening to them.
apologies if this has been mentioned before.
