Welcome to the Pee-wee Herman Radio Hour!
Here at KCRW, we love getting a good ol’ fashioned handwritten letter. A few weeks ago, apparently none other than the great Pee-wee Herman — he of red bicycles and anthropomorphized furniture — took the time to type one up to us.
But we never did come across it. Stuff gets lost in the mail. You know how these things go. Luckily, he followed up on Twitter.
Hi @KCRW, did you get the letter I sent you? I really REALLY want to be a radio Disc Jockey. But I never heard back from you. #DJlife #DreamBig pic.twitter.com/CBXPJMPEe1
