From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jawbone Radio is a podcast airing from an attic home office in Lakewood, OH outside of Cleveland. Co-hosts Len and Nora Peralta talk and debate life, marriage, racism, "geekdom", art and politics. Jawbone is a member of the Trypod Network.

The podcast, usually produced once a week, started in February 2005. It has been featured in a March 2005 article in the Cleveland Plain Dealer - syndicated by the Newhouse News Service - and as a "Podcast Pick" in June 2005 by BBC Online.

A graphic artist and illustrator, Len Peralta has contributed works to the podcast arena as well as private and public venues, including the 700 Hoboes Project, which was sparked by Boing Boing and inspired by John Hodgman. He is also the artist behind the "Jonathan Coulton Visual Thing A Week". Each week, he draws a visual interpretation of the songs by musician Coulton and posts them on his Flickr site.

Interviews on Jawbone Radio have included Michael J. Nelson, John Hodgman, Dave Devries, Buckner and Garcia, Dean Haglund, Amanda Congdon and Andrew Baron of Rocketboom.
