Habitat Enrichment

Apr 10, 2025 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Music

With Krista

Habitat Enrichment is the concept of introducing novelty to an animal's enclosure to keep it from getting bored or sad. Let me play you something fun. Genres span world and time, just like a cat with a box to play in.

Some specialties you can usually hear a little on my show: Luk Thuong, 60s crooners, cow punk, and synthwave. If you don't like the song currently playing, wait approximately 2 minutes for something else!

Rat

Just as you started "the Rat", I saw this article on "Ronin" the landmine-sniffing 'super' rat in Cambodia! https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/07/asia/cambodia-rat-ronin-guinness-record-intl-hnk/index.html?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us

Those bassoons were/are pretty killer

Nice Zelda gif, Ossy!!

Oh man, I was in Salt Lake City last week and saw some amazing birds at the aviary there!

Hi Readie! Hi Dan! Hi everyone!

Totally Rainbow! Wind Waker is one of my Zelda faves, which I finished last drive week!

They also had a bird show where I nearly had my head taken off by a half dozen different amazing birds as they swooped around the little room we were in!

..yup, "Comme une pierre que l'on jette Dans l'eau vive d'un ruisseau Et qui laisse derrière elle Des milliers de ronds dans l'eau "

Pledge to WPRB, don't be a hateful bird!

.. bartender, gimme a shot and I'll take today's special "Shells and Pellets", side of fries ..

night herons make blue jays seem friendly and compassionate.

No, it's WPRB's Dan R

Or rather, yes, it's me

Dan!!!

Night Heron would be a good band name. Bet they'd do a killer cover of Nite Flight

Jon! Dan R!

imagines the band night heron having nu-metal scream vocals about "disassemble the nest!"

Heart wrencher is right -- haunting!

SAD!

disassemble the nest//your hearts infest//CROWN THE NIGHT HERON

lol, you've heard the song!

Talk of needles makes me need to ask, were you the dj who did the needle power hour a few years ago? It’s always something I bring up to friends to try to explain why I love this station

I did a "why is brian eno obsessed with needles" show

first time i ever heard "needles in the camel's eye" was on WPRB 20+ years ago

it was actually a cover but that's how i discovered ol sourpuss brian eno

Ahh must have been something else, started with needles and pins then was just tons of songs about needles- If you’ve never listened to brian eno, where would you start?

..excellent show, superb experience, thanks for your service.
