Radio Happy Hour returns for a packed fall season after the summer hiatus. The show returns on October 2 with special guests Born Ruffians and follows up with shows on October 30 with Norah Jones and December 4 with Suckers. The comedic murder mystery returns to Le Poisson Rouge with new segments, new mysteries, and loads of special announcements lined up throughout the fall.

Radio Happy Hour, the radio show not on the radio, is a live variety show featuring a made-for-radio murder mystery sitcom, guest stars, musical performances, an audience quiz, and interviews with the guests. Past shows have seen Norah Jones as a motel manager; Michael Showalter as the host of his very own cable fitness show; Andrew W.K. as the iconic John Bender character from The Breakfast Club; Tunde Adebimpe (TV on the Radio) as the founder of a wilderness camp for ineffectual men; Kumail Nanjiani as a ventriloquist with a southern dummy; Craig Finn & Tad Kubler (The Hold Steady) as brothers and Chuck Klosterman as their dad on a doomed road trip to a small town called Manhattan, Minnesota.

Radio Happy Hour is the creation of Sam Osterhout, who also writes and serves as the show's host. "We try to book guests that have personalities that cross at odd angles," said Osterhout, "But there are always these neat little connections. You never know what will happen." All shows are podcast online following the performance. You can hear past episodes of Radio Happy Hour, with guests such as Norah Jones, Andrew W.K., The Hold Steady, Tunde Adebimpe (of TV on the Radio), Cursive, Jesse Eisenberg, Tapes 'n Tapes, Michael Showalter, Eugene Mirman, Chuck Klosterman, and more at RadioHappyHour.com or at iTunes
