They started the midnight programming right after new years with Friday night guys as guinea pigs. Midnight strikes, I push the BBC live feed button and hit main street hard before last call.
As long as we cover the PSA's/Lost&Found and play the underwriting spots without getting hammered on the air we get a lot of latitude after 9-10, which is when the live shows and b side material get played. Oh and Randy's the fucking man.
sick, I work over a Flannagan's across the street couple nights a week, I see ya in the studio doing your thing all the time, stop over for a drink sometime after work (..or during- just put in 'American pie' and run over:wink:)
I thought management came down on DJs for playing their own stuff had to keep it to whats in the computer? ...reversal for the better?
Management came down hard because some 17 year old douchebags thought it would be funny to have their friends on air swearing their balls off and playing music where every other word is "fuck". The policy is to only play whats on the computer, but some of us actually understand that if you stay away from rap and metal and avoid anything with fuck in the lyrics, you're set to go off the reservation.
Hah I find that the Kashmir-Layla combo works great for running down to the liquor store or an impromptu DJ safety meeting. The other Friday night guy will have the reigns this week, but I'll be back at it next Friday the 25th. Definately gonna swing by Flannagans after, or during...
still listen to WFUV most of the time, KRCL when I am in Utah
discoverd https://www.ackfm.com/ while in Cape/Nantucket
havent spent a lot of time with them but love what I know http://altaradio.org/
KLNX 107.9 in the eastern Vail valley is our little gem. Maybe when I retire I will go spin some tunes at 3am.
WTMD from Towson University is a good station, wtmd.org
WUMD out of UMass-Dartmouth is cool too their address is wumd.rocks I've never seen .rocks before.
KUNC near Fort Collins, 105.5, is really good. During an NPR pledge drive maybe 2 years ago, I switched to them, and never switched back.
"Alexa play wfuv"damn near every morning when coffee is made and I sit down to work
I helped start that station way over a decade ago. Got the studio lease and the tower lease for $1, which is not easy to say the least (Magnus Factor). My name is still probably on the original LPFM application with the FCC. It went way downhill, but is on a shocking rising rocket ship of participation right now. Hell, even KUVO left the valley. That was a huge loss. I loved chatting with the DJ's in 5 Points asking for requests and giving them the on the ground snow reports for their powder missions with Miles, Max, Mingus, and Monk.Quote:

Today is Public Radio day and there is a lot of good shit in here so
listen up
think it is up in here but WXPN is dope
KEXP is way cool because of the archive feature.
KUAA SLC. 99.9 low power FM. Has basically bumped Krcl off the dial imo.

WERU 89.9 (We are You, get it!) out of Blue Hill, Maine. Started out of a chicken coop converted to a studio by Noel Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul, and Mary. Wednesday night 8pm has a great Roots Culture Reggae show with great DownEast storytelling. WERU.org
KUAA 99.9FM is listener supported and having their fund drive right now! Do it...
https://www.kuaafm.org/donate/
I am not affiliated with KUAA, but I love it. Check it out.
I kinda hate that all the non-commercial stations do their fund drives at the same time but I get it. Switch from MVY (reluctantly,and only because the haranguing gets old when you've already given them money) and WFUV, WXPN, KEXP etc. etc. are all doing the same thing.
For times like that I listen to the pretty great WRNR-FM. RNR (Rock N Roll, you get get it, right?) is a really good commercial station with deep roots back to the truly great WHFS (a DC legend). A few commercials is a small price to pay to get away from all the guilting.
While I have spotify with tons of playlists I made and Youtube concerts are fun background, usually while I work I use the Alexa in my office and listen to WFUV, If I dont like the song or DJ, "Alexa play WXPN," or Alexa play KRCL.Quote:

I read bad Brad is the station manager. I like it a lot, but when they play some famous song recorded in Spanish, i change the station (and i speak Spanish!)
Yeah, circus brown is great, so is Mike and the Thursday night psych out. Both on Krcl.
On KUAA, i listen to the Tuesday night show, Long road home. Never know what you are going to get.
I also notice that KRCL has changed it up a little bit during the day, probably in response to the competition. Or not, who knows. But i think I've noticed it ...
KDPI in ketchum is pretty good. Been listening to that pretty much nonstop the last 3 weeks. 88.5.
ugh. pledge week. I gave them money but they keep on asking. Ok it was two years ago. But still.
KUAA Killin it tonight
Jamming out to FM radio! Yeah!

I listen to WMVY pretty much every night. Bill Narkewicz at 6:00 ET is a great DJ. https://mvyradio.org/listen
So, I go back and forth between WMVY (on right now) and WBJB. MVY musically can veer a little too much towards the maudlin folk, but generally it suits an old fogey like me. But yeah, the fund drives are just brutal. I have XM at home to avoid that, but I generally listen to satélite in the truck, for whatever reason.
There is a reason for these fund drives; these stations are largely listener-supported. They play what they want to because they aren't beholden to format & advertisers and thus no commercials. Support them for the same reasons you support your local coffee shop.
Send some money to keep them alive. Or don't. But can't bitch about the fund drives.
Well after you give them money they should give you a code to get to a begging-free stream for a while or something.
I'm kidding, but Radio Paradise is listener supported and they never beg and I give them money partly because of that.
