Last Show For a While
THIS SHOW ORIGINALLY AIRED ON WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23rd
What's up, weirdos. This is my last show on WPRB for a while. I'm traveling overseas for the next two weeks and I will be sitting out the Fall schedule to catch up on some other important work/life matters. I imagine I'll be doing some occasional fill-ins, but having been doing a weekly show non-stop since Covid started, I'm also looking forward to a break to let the creative batteries recharge. Stitching Pink fills in for me next week, and Number 6 the week after that. New WPRB schedule begins on September 7th. Bye!

Power to the Peasants
So remember, your day could be much worse.
Howdy team. As usual, I'm thrilled to be here in order to carry your lazy asses across the midday slump. Refresh this page to see the most recently-played songs, and be sure to check in and say hello in the chat. I forgot to mention it last week, but I met up with Tom and Eva (proprietors of our Spinitron playlist system) at the NFCB conference and had a long talk with them about the playlist chat function. I expressed my concern about Facebook or Google logins being required for chat entry, especially since so many people are fleeing the former and have increasing distrust of the latter. As such, they are taking it under consideration and hope to implement an authentication system for the chat that uses some other, non-privacy-stealing means (such as a one-time code sent to your mobile phone, or something else along those lines.) Updates will be passed along to you as I receive them, and hopefully a solution will ignite more interest in the chat.
In the meantime, there's lots of great new records to spin for you today before I beat it out of here and drive into NYC for the annual dinner meeting of WPRB oldsters. Hopefully the bar's bathrooms aren't in the basement a la the Erfurt example cited above.
THIS SHOW ORIGINALLY AIRED ON 7/12 FROM noon - 3 PM.

THIS SHOW ORIGINALLY AIRED ON 7/5/23.
I'm back from the National Federation of Community Broadcasters conference with a bad case of jetlag, a belly full of convention center food, and more community radio station swag than you can shake a set of XLR cables at. Also, a bunch of great new records to spin for you on this criminally humid day. A great time was had and I'm so proud to have represented WPRB at this annual meeting of non-commercial broadcasting allies. Thanks to Sally, Lisa, Ernesto, Eva, David, Becky, Téa, Freddie, Herb, and all of the other fine folks I spent time with last week. For today's program, I invite you to come for the freeform radio, but to stay for the KVMR rolling papers.
