These specific colors!
Hi everyone, I'm having a wild week/weekend so here's a show I prepared a while back! A friend kind of randomly started asking for songs that feature these hair dye colors and I came up with a bunch!
ALSO: special guest RIVKA (part of the reason I am so busy) will choose a song or two!
here are ways to stay in touch/stay informed of future shows:

10th Anniversary Special: LOVE good & bad & revisited
Hi everyone! It's 10 years (and 2 cities and 3 radio stations) since I started this radio show on WXOJ-LP, Valley Free Radio back on February 15, 2014! I'm reprising my first, hilariously broad topic, LOVE GONE WRONG AND LOVE GONE RIGHT! and looking back at what has and hasn't changed since that innocent time.
I'll also be making a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT about a future radio event to celebrate Uneasy Listening's 10th year on the air!
And finally at 10pm: DANCE PARTY/CAN PARTY (RIP Damo Suzuki)
If you're up for 10 more years of this nonsense, join the e-mail list and/or facebook group!

House Parts!
Image: Moomin house concept art, 1990
Here is songs about parts of a house! This was a surprisingly fertile topic with a decent number of songs and a very high proportion of really good songs, so there will be a part 2 some day! And I've already done shows about doors, windows, underground things and rooms so I used up a bunch of songs that way! Isn't music great, now really.

Enjoying this angle of the sun
Good morning! It's me I'm here it's me. The temperature and light in the Factory of Hope are ideal and I'm having some mint green tea. These children enjoying a nice breakfast pate in the mountains reminds me of the part in spellbound when Gregory Peck and Ingrid Bergman are having a picnic in the mountains and he ask her if she'd like ham or liverwurst and she rapturously replies LIVERWURST

Innnnnterjections! Hallelujah!
In memory of Philly native singer-songwriter Essra Mohawk, it's a show of songs with interjections in them! Because she cowrote and sang the Interjections song from Schoolhouse Rock. I took out some biggies like yeah, oh, and hey for future shows and I've already done yes, no, hello, goodbye and oh no!
Then at in my final hour I'll play one song that only has an interjection in the title, not the lyrics. And of course a bunch of brand new music!

Setting forth calmly into the new year
Honey, it's in the 40s! Welcome to 2024. I'll be playing a bunch of pretty poppy and mellower stuff but I mean, it's still me! Commie Francis! So there may be some distorted guitars etc.
