I've been listening to the Luke Burbank podcast TBTL, co-hosted by KIRO radio host Andrew Walsh for a few years now. On a recent podcast it was announced that Walsh is leaving KIRO and Seattle to move to LA to produce a public radio show. That leaves KPCC and KCRW. And as LA Observed has noted, KCRW's Madeleine Brand is looking for a producer. Add to that Luke Burbank is friends with Brand evidenced by his Awesome-Not Awesome slot in Brand's former KPCC show.
