pledge.wprb.com

Mission of Burma do it too. I hear rumors of a rendition with Penelope from The Avengers singing but I've never located...

@Readie you know it!

WPRB is a treasure y'all. Lizbot, Readie Righteous, Wilbo, Catamoji -- come on!

woooooo!

How could I forget Jen Redlights?!!

Nothing like getting home early to the pledge drive to beautiful weather and a stack of book revisions to start. Will be enjoying this all in the yard

... and of course Jon Solomon, the OG!

That's very sweet, Bike R. I kid because I care!

Aw thanks, Bike R!

All of you DJs -- thanks so much, you make such a difference to all of us!

❤️

@Jon OG all the way! We know it!

@Jen your show is amazing AF

You can never have too much purple

gitcher purple right cheer!

Wilbo! Readie! rock it!

Just added to my monthly pledge. Every station is a monoculture - except for you. WPRB is the audiodiversity that keeps us all healthy. The roses sometimes have thorns and the meadows sometimes have bees and that's the way it should be!

THANK YOU MR. MONT!!

Yes @Mr.Mont!

well said!!!

YEAH MR MONT!

🤘🤘🤘

Oh yeah.

I have to step away but wanted to shout thanks to Mr Mont, too! And also the Geraldine Fibbers, whom I hadn't heard in years.

and Wilbo and Readie, a match made in radio heaven. later, friends!

I had zero idea The Geraldine Fibbers did this cover and I was going to work on the yard but Rodan has put that plan VERY MUCH ON HOLD.

@Jon this is the magic of WPRB.

Thx for stoppin' by, Jen!

Windows down wprb cranked drove by cemetery funeral. Hope the spirits heard it!

@Roy Cole feeling it

Hey Roy - sounds like a good ride...

rest in power, all!!!

what's everyone's go-to "shake the windows with the bass to announce my presence" song?

Sunn O)))) clearly

Maybe the opening track of their album with Scott Walker?

Hey Dan R!!

Hey Readie!

that's a good call, I normally go Benzi Box by MF DOOM/Dangermouse

rattlin' the barge portholes up in here, y'all!

Oh that's a solid choice

if it rumbles, i like it

that ramatam track was delightfully chaotic

Hey guys I’m around town today. Can I come by and donate in person?

Thomas, if you want to donate in person perhaps come meet WPRB at Porchfest or at the Record Exchange for Record Store Day?

Dammit Wilbo, I can't go yard work if Cab It Up is on. Too good!

Sounds good thanks

Say hey when you do!

Have a seltzer and put it off just a bit, Jon!!😉

I so rarely hear Mark E Smith in non-festive circumstances

idk if you'll get it notified/counted as a new donation but I just increased my monthly pledge level, happy drive!

really sold it on the merch pitch haha

Hey Zach! Thanks so much!!!! 👏👏

@Zach: If you added $5 to your monthly pledge, you also get a really rad pin!

Readie talked me into the nostalgia of letter writing so that should work haha

details coming next break! ADD FIVE!!!

Nice, Zach!

All thanks to the DJs! You've all been sparing me from the algorithms for 15 years now

Oh, I like that as a tag line: "WPRB: Sparing you from the algorithms since 1941"

🌹

Yard work done. Let me crack a seltzer and I'll get you updated, Zach.

Jon, is there anyway to update my shirt size? Do you go up to XL?

I feel so loved - thank you!

Zach, YES! Email lsd@wprb.com with any changes (I will get that email).

https://wprb.com/add5

https://wprb.com/addfive

(Shirts go up to XXL.)

awesome, thanks!

BAAAAAMMMMMMMM!

I have a WPRB "new jerseys only radio station" bumper sticker on my car, and the other day i was in traffic behind ANOTHER CAR WITH THE SAME ONE IN THE SAME SPOT

i never know how to take advantage of that without potentially scaring people pulling up to them and shouting at them. how do??

BAM!

CHEF! what's on today's pledge-drive specials menu??

@Chef - I would like to think a fellow WPRB listener would be just as excited. I know I would be.

i saw someone at god's auto body last week with a pledge pin on their jacket, but i was similarly flummoxed!

CHEF that bumper sticker thing is a BAMMMM moment for sure!!!

just drive next to them and blast it, they will know

@Amy Lee- agree!!!

all my wprb stickers are on my computer, this one will go on the car

THE BOOKS!! praises! praises!

LOL I guess I didn't think of the stickers as car jawns, cuz of their shape- but - hey! works!!!!

we're cookin a traditional PLEDGE DRIVE GUMBO!!! EVERYONE CHOOSE ONE INGREDIENT (and go to PLEDGE.WPRB.COM)

and thanks for the tips everyone, i didnt think about how they'd probably simply recognize me, a celebrity chef and chat regular

Yeah - I have The Radio tarot card sticker on my laptop. I wish that one was a t-shirt!

Hey Yeah Lucy Catemoji! 😻😻

@chef starfruit!

You're all updated, Zach. Thanks for adding five and supporting WPRB!

I have the ouija board pin on rn!!!!

prawns!

Thanks again, Jon

Good afternoon all!

Hey Parrscream!!!

Readie, I was distracted. When are you playing dopesmoker?

Hey Zach - that sounds like a request 🤣

Since it is hard to go an hour+ without pitching during the Membership Drive perhaps you can settle for...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8wGzEfB354

oh I thought you had mentioned it

Jon I love this!

Yep, Zach I did mention it! I played the Landowner one a while back on Recherché and the original a couple of years ago now...

sounds like you've BECOME the dopesmokers lol

Chant it with me, chat.

Wilbo! Wilbo! Wilbo!

Wilbo!

Wilbo! Wilbo!

@addie- we're high on life up in here, and drive, and pledge.wprb.com!!!

That's 350 total pledges!

Wooo!

Keep it goin'! YAY!!!!

👏👏👏👏

NINA!!!!

This is some serious Wilbocore.

Zarah is my favorite Nina Hagen song! My friend & I went up to NYC to see her show in late 2001, and she said she had come to heal New York and then threw her wig off and hopped into the crowd and danced with my friend and I!

what a cool moment, Lizbot!!!

@DJ Readie - a great night in New York!

🙌

so cool @Lizbot

@Wilbo said get ready for the dance party and I'm like subconciously dancing in my chair at every song, well warned

Well done, Zach!!!

I didn't say it was good dancing

I cannot say how much I love y'all enough!!😍😍 Thanks to everyone!!! Fun Fun Fun!

@Zach- all dancing is good dancing!!! that's what I say!!

Dukes! Stratospheric!

Hey Fran!!! Yay Andy Partridge!!

We've got another "ADD 5" person. Not sure if they want to be thanked but I see you!

-~~ thanks you for the musics and service.

😍👏👏 thank YOU!!

Thanks for th' donating everybody!!! ...and thanks to Readie!!!

Congrats Wilbo & Readie for making yr goal! Great show!

Dá Bəng Gôu thank YOU for bein' here!
