“Warren Orlando is a dying breed,” said Harrison. ”In an age when satellite radio is on the verge of bankruptcy, radio as it once was is almost extinct. Very rare are the stations in which DJs make their own playlists and spin their own records.”
Music from the show, such as The Idle Race‘s song in the first episode, also get airtime in Harrison’s real-life NYU radio show, “Plastic Tales From The Marshmallow Dimension.” The first season of Polyester Dreams boasts artists from the late 60s and early 70s such as Complex, Lucifer’s Friend, Coven and Saturnalia. Although most people may not recognize these names, Harrison considered them to be “ahead of [their] time.” The versatile Harrison also hosts the web series, Street Talk with Andrew Harrison, found on TheStreet.com.
Other cast members in Polyester Dreams include Satu Rautaharju (appeared on HBO’s Flight of the Concords), improv comedian Rob Lathan (The Colbert Report, Human Giant ) and Dallas Coyle from the metal band God Forbid. Two episodes are currently out, with six more coming in the first season. All episodes are available on iTunes and the show’s official site.
