OH YEAH! REDLIGHTS!

we are here!

Andiamo!

🤘🏻

Reset the pledge counter to 000 and get ready to rock.

Allons-y

I'm pretty pumped about this show, I won't lie

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS_BARXSjZWeknwfU0tLAy1z-T7ksLCOmxg1ODSWL6jeA&s=10

Couches are already being thrown!

hahahahah love it!

@Mats Sabbath, I finally got around to Bong Corleone today. Such fuzz. Such dronage. Loved it.

JOMJEN

Zach nice!!

PUMP UP THE SOLOMON

Little more Jon on the board

Zach the master list of Bong- named bands is as long as a doombeard

Any better? Or should I just YELL?

MORE JON YELLING!

More Jom in the mon(itors), just a lil bump up

Oh, I know a fix!

we travel to the punkier upstart parts of the great nation of Italy today

My friends did an 8 pints in 8 countries in one day today and just got on the train to Italy, country #9 where they’re switching to wine. So the Italian punk is appropriate for all these updates I’ve been getting.

JOM https://www.ween.net/images/gener-gene-ween.jpg

The words “European tour” should’ve been in there donewhere

Please let me know if I made my levels TOO LOUND now.

Zach what!!

@zach haha perfect!

pledge.wprb.com

🗣️BAM

Yeah I’m jealous I couldn’t make that trip

I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings but this is my favorite show on wprb

Jen yer region markers are rad

Bam indeed.

CREEPIN IN LIKE A ROMAN PHALANX

@commie you are the sweetest ever , my friend

It's like choosing between 75 adorable kittens though

@zach i wish i were on that trip!

@commie hahhahh

there's a very sweet woman online with Tourrette's who often sez BOX OF KITTENS FUCKIN PICK ONE. My fave outburst from her.

Commie, for sure I have some bangers for you today

Good afternoon, y'all!

Donutage in the chat!

ciao, tutti!

I would have recommended more but most of the Italian bands I know are very noisy hardcore punk and I didn't think that was what you were going for today!

Buon' giorno, bambini!

JON TURN UP A BIT

Jon still a little quiet

Trattoria JomJen

Improved?

still about half the volume of jen to my chef ears

Devo in full effect

Yonic South!

Weird! We were good in rehearsal. I'll keep working on it over here.

this whole ep is basically a devo tribute, the best thing ever

Pledge this man a new cohost microphone!

The rare band I didn't first hear on WPRB.

I'll shout. You're worth it.

wild, @donutage!

JomJen what time is "La Villa Strangiato" by Rush airing? (italian punk, with hashish)

ahhhhh!

Buon giorno a tutte!!

btw i love this new moniker. way cooler than Bennifer

Per favore, dia i suoi soldi alla gentile signora tramite la radio.

pledge.wprb.com

Maple Death Records !

hungry for a hoagie - hi Jen, Jon.

Mi piacce molto questo verzione di lo stooges!

Hooooooooooooooooagiiiiiieeeeeeeeeee

i'll take your order, oldmotorbikeguy, what'll ya have?

If you all missed The Hoagie of Triumph, it can be viewed here...

https://www.instagram.com/p/DXdLTxFFQEV/

the hoagie of triumph looked so darn good.

spicy italian, no mayo

https://youtu.be/DLhx2q9vQro?si=VzdPRlcJF01bzzY_ Some are saying this is the first time they've seen Albini smile LOL @Jon

hello, @ombg and dan and emeril!

#hoagiecore

ha!

Jon lookin good babe. Nice dusk on Nassau there

Wicked Pagans Ripping Bongs

I gotta leave in 30 minutes, which means Driving with the windows down and WPRB blasting all the way up Rt. 31

Jon you have one of those cool dad puffi jackets. I need one of those.

ROUTE 31 CLEAR THE ROADS FOR OMBG COMIN IN HOT

@Ombg - I'm psyched for you getting to do that during this show!

That’s the volume Jon

Gary! Phoenix! Nice. Land of the Meat Puppets.

You two again! Twice in one week!

Yeah it is! Weekend starts Friday at 3:00

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IxJfOufAL._AC_UF1000,1000_QL80_.jpg

twice in one week! I think Jamjom should be on more often, right?

some nice punky riffage here

i adore this record

Five pledges down, five to go.

(Punky Riffage is Punky Brewster's cousin)

Volume issues sorted, rock issues never in question.

My drywall better watch out.

Buon pomeriggio Jen e Jon! Sono felice di ascoltare il vostro programma questo pomeriggio. Tutto questo punk!

Zach that's the spirit

Yes! Double the fun!

This Festa is super! Supra?

Rende felice anche me, @rob!

haaaaaa this is wonderfully bad brains-y

haha it is, isn't it!

a little more cowpunk

Grazie, Roberto.

Gas Huffer meets bad brains

"Mucca Punk" doesn't quite have the same ring to it, sadly

Gas Huffer were da best

this show has been killer!

Four pledges from Jen's show goal. Can we get there...by the midpoint?

@commie thank you! @team OMG FOUR???

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQYeSDIGHKyWNzxoHIm_EZNnFf0t_ol58sBzA&s this many away

Mats, yessss

Watching Patriarchy Rust and Burn

that was Ahab-y, spacious and desert-y

oh chit Zach, that's gangsta!

BIG JIM

EXCELLENT ITALIAN GREYHOUNDARY

Wearwolves Plunging in Rage Baths

OMBG! WPRB!

you all are incredible

the mighty Uzeda

THE LISTENERS ARE SHOWING OUT FOR RUNNING REDLIGHTS!

Mats got his Uzeda, just a few days later than planned...

Seeing Uzeda at the Touch & Go Fest in 2006 was a definitely live show highlight

(which I probably say whenever I hear Uzeda on WPRB)

There is an Uzeda documentary I still hope to see.

if yall like Uzeda, check out Lardo ! bandcamp

I have never seen them and wish I could!!

Here is a photo of Uzeda in my parents' driveway I think my dad took? If not him, my friend Jodi.

https://scontent-lga3-3.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/472276013_10162692547584273_1623951977078222866_n.jpg?_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=f798df&_nc_ohc=sI9Cm-NG76UQ7kNvwFmXhY1&_nc_oc=AdrOtxE-MuCRuelIFC8J2YwDKjoX4m50Jx_49huyIQS1qf4sRYXV-bD0DVvVg-gbasg&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-3.xx&_nc_gid=EDHr27UI060lQBmKcRWIBQ&oh=00_Af0C_3uxZNLv2fY2tH9_vNB9tUKob8CjCtaIIt4rlAIPSQ&oe=69F1B338

That's a Chat Exclusive!

Jom rad

I see the gentlemen of Shellac in that pic as well. Who are the other folks?

The rock band Dis-.

oh haha they played that show?? then i DID see Uzeda?!

Different show, Jen. 1995 (?) at The Terrace Club, apparently.

😅

So you likely DID see Uzeda!

the nice thing about senility is these pleasant surprises ;)

i saw uzeda apparently. file them with the ex in the amazing bands i saw at that t&g show but don't remember seeing drawer

this one is for @dan

All right!

I could only go to one night of the Touch & Go thing, sadly.

classico!

Was in Chicago for a wedding.

Adriano!!!!!!!!!

i went for negative approach

Three pledges from Jen's new goal!

"the gentlemen of Shellac" love it

also stayed in the basement of one aadam jacobs famous show recorder

I went for a positive attitude.

that tracks!

The b side to this Celentano song was a song called "Disc Jockey"

PMA

So, yay DJ Jen and DJ Jon

so damn funny

I kinda wish Captain Beefheart had done a cover of this

Thanks to Bruce for the ADD FIVE.

The guitars are halfway there already

or Digital Underground, big hand claps

So we are two pledges away from Jen's revised goal...

If you want to increase your monthly total by $5/month or more and get an exclusive pin in the process head to wprb.com/add5.

I used to have a 1973 era 45 which I treasured from when I lived in Italy but sadly I lost it in a move

this pledge drive is insaner than Crazy Eddie

"Disc Jockey" starts off as its own song but ends up morphing into Prisencolinensinainciusol

Oh no, Rob!

@dan hahaha that'd be brilliant!

@mats hahaha

I bought Rush Caress of Steel at Crazy Eddie new and it smelled funny

oh man crazy eddie. these pledges are INSANE

i think i'd rather hang with tom carvel though

Cookie Puss!

COOKIE PUSS

DONATE FOR COOKIE PUSS AND DA FUDGIE WHALE

besides being a delicious ice cream cake cookie puss was also the beloved cat who lived on the top floor at abc no rio

and cookie o'puss! it's basically still st patrick's day

Uncle O'Grimacey!

i was gonna play cookie puss by the beastie boys on my abc no rio show but the lyrics are pretty awful

THEM HOIGHTY TOIGHTY IN TIGHTY WHITIES

It's strange that I've never been to ABC No Rio. Maybe because they didn't advertise in the Village Voice or Aquarian.

Jon throws shade at the university, I love it. You angelic upstart you, Jon

Yeah!

WIIIIIIIIILLLLLD MAAAAAAAANNNN WIIIIILLLDDDDD

The only shade comes from the giant building they're building next to where I sit that blocks out the sun.

But WPRB is on our own. It is how we prefer to be and it is for the best.

It is the way.

I believe I yelled at the exact same time the singer of Negation did the same.

hahahah

this is rad Jen

Two pledges from Jen's new goal.

pledge.wprb.com

that almost-fall-apart punk is SO GOOD

🤘🏻

Also if you have any ADD FIVE issues, email me (lsd@wprb.com) and I can likely solve!

was so jazzed to find these live recordings of Negazione!

I can picture a record cover of theirs with my eyes shut more than most.

That nonsensical Adriano Celentano song title has one more letter than "humuhumunukunukuapua'a'a'a", the fish species Bugs names the island after in the 1943 Chuck Jones short "Wackiki Wabbit".

oh you're playing the hc punk bands after all!

couldn't not do it!

Negazione Approachi

this golpe song is a medley of 4 italian hc classics!!!

told you i'd have some bangers for you, @commie. ;) (this song is awesome)

did not know that was the setup!!!

Golpe!

golpe is also one guy on recordings. tadzio. a sweetheart!

long live the (overdriven) "rhinocerus bass" as Albini called it

songs are by wretched, indigesti, eu's arse and nabat. we're on the indigesti song

oh i guess we were on the nabat song by the time i hit enter

eu's arse !!

JomJen at what time will pink floyd live (to no audience) at Pompeii be played in entirety

I think this is my favorite so far.

it's pretty solomony

solomonianesque

ya know, cronenbergian, solomonianesque, minguslike

Of the songs I didn't know already that is...

Not that I have known many of these!

SONGS ABOUT CUDDLES (punk rock! LOL!)

You know what would be incredible? A new person to thank before we go on-mic next!

pledge.wprb.com

you say punk = asshole, i say punk = cuddle

hahahaha

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

punx have the rough exterior and gooey sweet center

The pledge link doesn't work.

try hitting it from wprb.com ? it seems to be flighty

https://pledge.wprb.com?

Sorry you're having an issue, David.

If you can elaborate that would be helpful.

wprb.com/pledge might get you there successfully?

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS_BARXSjZWeknwfU0tLAy1z-T7ksLCOmxg1ODSWL6jeA&s=10

this #cannolicore today hits the spot, DJs

Someone just pledged so we're one away!

ah yeah the link in the show description seems broken, it goes to a 404 page on spinitron

this is the url: https://spinitron.com/WPRB/pledge.wprb.com

Ahhhhhh. Jen can fix that after we talk.

seems like maybe a copy and paste error

I can fix this shortly!

with espresso and italian punk on WPRB all things are possible

hit it with the hippie hammer

helluva set indeed, dirty and sharptoothed

aiffrig LOLOLOLOLOLOL

fixed, i hope

Turshu & aneek!'s duo show last Tuesday was amazeballs, Mr Toad's Wild Ride

Yep, that fixed it Jen. Thanks for letting us know, David.

WILL DAVID BE NUMBER 15?

I said it before, but the DJ Team Ups are just the most fun part of this Comic Book series we call a radio station

I love that you love it, @zach! we have so much fun too!

When I first started listening to WPRB pre-Membership Drive 6,000 years ago I used to thrill when different DJs would suddenly materialize on each other's shows.

DebbieWeb's goblin growl with xXCerxesXx wuz priceless

HAHHAAHH amazig

amazing, even!

Like when Cyclops shoots his punch beams at Wolverine’s claws and then everyone starts moshing

Lol

Or, when Mr. Mike would cover for the hardcore show Decline and Fall when The Fall were coming to town with an All Fall Decline and Fall. The best!! WPRB forever!

@zach HA!

WPRB FOREVER

text pledge drive, tattoos

Jon haaaaa!!

c'mon, tell ONE MORE FRIEND

ONE MORE FIEND

As WPRB DJs we're all a small part of a very special continuum.

tell the fiends!

I hope OMBG is blasting this on the freeway

zippin down Route 31/ mowin down sucka MCs like he's mowin the lawn

That's 15! I'm setting the stretch goal's stretch goal of 18!

pledge.wprb.com

helllloooo

@andrew!

PRB reaches a world wide audience

18 like the Alice Coopa song

16!

just spent an hour cleaning debris off my roof, and i must say that running redlights makes the perfect soundtrack for doing that

stretch it!

andrew nice! Debris Slide - Pavement

BOP IT

@andrew ha! careful up there!

We ain't stretching the goal a third time. 18 is thee goal. Two more!

ONE MORE

JomJen at what time will Goblin's Suspiria be played in full

hahahaha

pls can we keep JomJen

second best part of this membership drive

JOMJEN. THE GOM JABBAR. The spice must flow.

yer listening to Jawns and JomJens on WPRB Princeton

this song also might be the bet thing ever

Was that Adriano Celentano?

Jom ‘em if you Jen ‘em

@mike a bit ago, yes!

Well, this rules.

Are we hearing a kazoo?

Band name not withstanding.

Oh I missed it! i just tuned in.

JOMSVIKING (Amon Amarth album!)

this is killer

Such a wonderful show! Ty Jen and Jon!!

@mike well welcome now! glad you're here!

thank you, @rob!!

@amy i wouldn't be surprised!

I did not bring a kazoo so I'm innocent for once.

next year!

Oh yeah, Jon, the hoagie photo was super! I'm glad you could enjoy one!

I concur

I’ve been having way too much fun in the chat since the drive started, thanks to all the DJs and listeners for making this the best radio station on earth

since this is italian themed I'd like to acknowledge the great wprb dj FLEXUS LUTHORIOUS MAXIMUS

well said Zach

Sangeet is rad. DJ RUNGUN WITH THE STUNGUN playing the ecstatic ragas. Dave is amazing.

Another "nonsense" Italian thing I discovered at the same time as Prisencolinensinainciunsol: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1AGmUoevAD/

Fun show! thanks JomJen

Sangeet and Red Lights are both weekend appointment radio

not a curry fan , sorry

As Venom said, NJ is wiiilllllld maannnnnnwiilllldddddddddd

THERE IT IS! 18!!!

Great show, jomjem!

Byeeeeeeee!

TOTAL TOBIAS

WE DID IT!

thanks, everyone!!!!
