MAZZY STAR ❤️‍🔥 HOPE SANDOVAL ❤️‍🔥

Awww Hellz Yeeaahh

Did something happen to DJ McSweden?! 😡🤬

What’s the story being told with these song titles?! 🧐

good moosic

Hey,

hi!

I follow you today and I was planning on playing Mazzy Star in my last set. Still doing it!

<3

more mazzy for wprb listeners!

And MJ. I will not be stopped.

more MJ later in my show haha

MAZZY STAR every show! Get it ready, Marvin!

i wonder if an orchestra has played a mazzy star song

I’m cry. GET IT READY MARVIN!!

Thanks to the online playlist I won’t play any repeats.

power of the internet!

I have about 7 hours of extra songs in my que so I’ll survive.

going until midnight

Do it, TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS!

Hey Tobias!

Whoa, this song rn af 📸 💥

HelloTAndy.

I will start like PBR and end like Music you can’t hear on the radio. Two great shows to be in the middle of.

oh thank you for the kind words!

Dang! The time traveling today! Fun Timez

MrM you may have missed it, SBW-III was on yesterday morning before Sangeet. Good times were had by all.

I was about fifteen mins late, however enjoyed the rest of the show tho yo! That was a great surprise! Cheers, TAndy!

iamthelabhras… here’s yer brainz 🧠 so you can return to chatting even if it’s with yourself! Good idea? Yes it is!

This ONE is #1‼️

Loving the show! This is a goodie!!!

thank you!

Just waiting for the day Weird Ol American returns to the radio... 😭

Thank goodness PBR is here forever ;)

Yes, I enjoyed Dylan's show!

I love this song. 🎶Only a chateau!🎶

@MrMalcontent Sorry! Was on the phone there for a bit. What'd I miss?

"Are You There God, It's Me, @" is an objectively wonderful album title.

I want to listen to that album so bad but I don't wanna miss any of PRB

Really loving this

i love @

Were The Umbrellas on Sarah? Cause this is giving me Sarah vibes.

they are a current band!

brand new single

Phew 😅 just a phone call! You missed great selections, iamthelabhras! Too bad, so sad 😞

@DJ McSweden Yesssssss Sarah Records renaissance!

It’s 55° here today. Hypothermia is bout to kick off. 🥶 look at my house… 🧊!

@MrMalcontent Couldn't avoided I'm afraid. I'll have to catch the tunes I missed later. It's OK tho. I've got a program on my computer that auto-generates new Princeton Blue Ribbon Spotify playlists after each show!

🤯

You so fancy, iamthelabhras. I hope the phone call didn’t bring bad news

As I know I mentioned before, DJ McSweden, there is no need to panic. I do not have black & white surveillances photos of you hung up in a studio apartment a la In The Line Of Fire.

lolol

I bet it’s the opposite 😮

@MrMalConten No, no bad news, buíochas le Dia. Just a nice catch up call.

Very good! Never forget my last letter!

This song has me all ZUT ALORS!

That letter was riddled with typos & profanity @MrMalcontent. I don't think I could forget it if I tried...

Whuthahaha you just left off the last letter of my name butttt fun timez @iamthelabhra ⬅️

Ahh ... I see now. Yes, you are correct. My bad.

🤣😇🤓😎

Great stuff 🎶🎵 What’s on tap for hour three, DJ McSweden?!

some slower jams

COCTEAU TWINS ❤️‍🔥

n i f t y

@iamthelabhras I saw that you're the one responsible for the glorious John Solobot too, nice 😎

Lol ... yes I am @TAndy. GRMA for the compliment.

Solobot was definitely the most fun WPRB-related coding / community engagement project I've worked on in the past few years. That said, working on rolling out some new stuff in 2024! Currently working on migrating all the old WPRBXmas listener stories & songs into a MySQL database, which I'm then going to use as a jumping off point for a real, honest-to-God community hub.

K Records❣️ 1️⃣9️⃣9️⃣3️⃣❣️

Listeners will be able to create accouts on marathon.christmas, log in to access site features, and, perhaps most importantly for WPRBXmas contributors, they'll be able to directly edit & update the information associated with their band/performer profile & individual contributions.

WTFUCK

Well done, iamthelabhra$!!

Don't go praising me just yet, @MrMalcontent. There's a big difference between typing out those plans in the chat and actually implementing them, esp. as a solo developer! I'll believe it when I "see" it.

Ahh ... the Umbrellas are on *Slumberland Records*. Yes, that makes sense.

I’m still impressed with your intentions and care! @iamthelabhra$!

feel like I'm eavesdropping on the future of WPRB community, @iamthelabhras! PLUS great sts, DJ MCS!

*sets*

🍸🍸🍸❣️

DJ Readie Righteous❣️ Hi!

always a plesh, MrM!!!

thank u readie!

How are things on Chemin Malcontent?!

Yeah, DJ McS- supposed to be planning my 3 shows this week, but gotta get into PBR!!!

@DJ Readie in the chat! Fáilte!

woah! lotta radio

I loved you dropping "Slán abhaile" into one of your recent shows. Warmed me Irish heart it did.

Fáilte, Iamthelabhras!! DIdn't realize you are a techie maestro!!

hey readie :)

More like a dedicated journeyman than a maestro, @DJ Readie. But GRMA! I try...

@AWWW, cool- Iamthelabhras!! I speak it better than I spell it!!

@TAndy hi there!

DJ Readie Righteous, erythang is good enough! Ain’t that great?! Thank you! How are you??

You're blazing the trail for the station iamthelabhras, my god.

iamthelabhras, I maintain that the English phrase "So long" comes DIRECTLY from the Irish Slán!

Not sure if it was your project but I saw another site that auto-logs some WPRB shows as text playlists, but it seemed to not be automated.

@MrM- elated to see HUGE snowflakes falling here today, only to be shut down 10 minutes later! Dang! can't get a break!

oh wait it is automated i was just looking at the wrong date lol. https://wprb.rocks

I wonder if WFMU morning maestro Clay Pigeon knows about this tune! lol

my bet would be they got their name from it haha

@DJ McS- love that new Waxahatchee, right?

HA ha - well Clay Pigeon has been around for eons- not sure! lol

so cool that MJ Lenderman is on it too!

Gotta check it! Thx McS!

Somehow my inner cowgrrrl has come out during this awesome set!

Yeeehaaawww!

I second tha emotion, MrM!

🤠 🤠

head 'em up, move 'em out!

joining in on the YEEEEEHAW

I keep seeing parts of the country experiencing awful weather and the ramifications that come with it. I say be CONTENT with whatever you got on yer doorstep. 😥

Yeah TAndy! {whip cracks}

Every time I try to do a yeehaw irl it just becomes a grito

@MrM - all good wishes to those experiencing awful weather and stay safe...I am just hoping for a little snow to STICK just ONCE this winter....

same

Some sticky snow may be possible tomorrow into Wednesday, models are coming to a consensus... 2-4 inchs, most likely 2 :/

Maybe up to 4 inches in some spots north and west of philly

@TAndy - 🤣 don't give up!

There’s an app for that. Roku has a screensaver of all snow covered erythang. Turn that on and stay safe! 🤓🤑🤠

@TAndy (don't give up on the yeeeehaw, I mean!)

got a car with awd and good tires and aint not get no snow ever since

Haha MrM! I watched "Northern Exposure" for some snow-crunchin' scenes, and binged a couple of LL Bean catalogs 🤣

That’s the spirit! ❄️☃️❄️⛄️❄️

🤣

☃️🏔️❄️🏂❄️🏔️☃️

@TAndy, I know, I've been living under an HOA for the last few years and NO SNOW REMOAL needed since then...so those fees...dang

Woof. I take care of the shoveling at my apartment. Back yard, the steps leading to my front door, and two sidewalks :)

This song is snow peaking my interest!

Yikes, be careful with the shoveling, TAndy! My cousin in Green Bay is having a LOT of shoveling going on this weekend

OMG, DJMcS one of my faves ever

Ahh, Green Bay... Wonder how Dallas is going ;) this song rules btw

The '90s live!

LOVE IT!

:)

Penguin Cafe O sample from "Telephone", or the other way 'round?

It's not '90s, or even '90s adjacent, but have you ever heard Mia June's "Slate Is Clean" @DJ McSweden? She released it on a Father Daughters Records about a month ago. I loved it. Think you might too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lt0PoVIts0s

And from out of nowhere Spacehog!!! Mungo City woulda really bliwn

Blown my mind..

i havent but ill check it out!

LUSH❣️

Answering my own question- Spacehog did sample the telephone sfx from PenguinCafe Orchestra's Telephone & Rubber Band from 1972- sorry I'm a nerd for 70's music...

DOUSED <33

Sorry, DJ Readie Righteous! I didn’t know the answer. And then my electricity just blinked and killed my internet 🛜 ugh. Using data to catch end of show! BOOF

DJ McSweden! Many thanks for another Gem of a Show! Big cheers and kind regards to you, Sir!

@MrM., yes, I lost power twice yesterday during a FaceTime with my niece in La Jolla! (West Sideeeeeee)

Cheers to all the Dears, especially DJ Readie Righteous!

WestSiiidddeee!!

See ya, MrM.!

@DJ McS- thx for a sublime program today!!!

Great show as always, DJ! Loved every minute of this.

SLINT 🩶 just got this vinyl!
