Emergency Krulwich

A radio piece by esteemed NPR correspondent, Robert Krulwich, used to prevent dead air when something goes wrong.

Coined by NPR's Bryant Park Project:

"An emergency Krulwich is a radio piece, any radio piece, by (...) Robert Krulwich. Krulwiches are always fascinating, amazingly well-produced, thought-provoking, and...long.

Matt keeps our emergency Krulwiches locked in a secret bunker beneath BPP world headquarters. He's the only one with the code and the weighty responsibility of deciding when to deploy.

Let me make plain at this point that we don't only use our Krulwiches in emergency situations. Sometimes they make perfect thematic sense and we use them on purpose. Sometimes we just can't resist using them because they're so good.

But sometimes, it's an emergency."
"This morning's guest is a no-show. We have to deploy the emergency Krulwich."

Emergency socks

That pair of old socks on your dresser you only put on when you're in a hurry and can't spare the time to find another pair.
Bro 1: Dude you got ready quick.

Bro 1: Nice~.

Emergency pizza outfit

Emergency pizza outfit is a socially acceptable looking set of clothes that pizza pros put on after ordering pizza online. The emergency outfit usually stays hidden under a comfy, stretched and obviously dirty sweater that gets thrown on a floor in panic upon hearing a doorbell by the pizza pro.

In an effort not to look like a complete flat troll, one can complement the emergency pizza outfit with a crazy, upside down head shake to make one's hair not look so blaaah.
Gurl, I'm so on point today. I even put on my emergency pizza outfit, so the delivery guy doesn't think I'm a freaking flat troll.
