I did another of my little @WFMU fill-in radio shows today (30 May 2025) on @WFMUDrummerStream.

The playlist page is here:

wfmu.org/playlists/shows/152555

Since the show has now already happened, you can listen to it any time you want via the archive links.

Just now make sure you skip the links labelled "LIVE Audio Streams", and go hit one of the links a little lower down the page where it says "Listen to this show:"!

Last night's radio program featured new tracks from Nilufer Yanya, Nitro Cosmetic, Clipping, L.A. Witch, Roots Manuva, Damien Youth, and Marshall Allen. But if moldy oldies are more your jam, we gots Mekons, Tall Dwarfs, Brian Eno, Hailu Mergia, Nikki Giovanni, Culture, and the TV Personalities to feed your hunger for Ye Olde Tyme Jams.

mixcloud.com/gutsyradio/mark-i I do a live radio show every 2 weeks on Monday nights. You've likely seen me post about it before. It's a truly freeform affair, mixed on the fly. I really enjoy segways and finding connections that barely make sense. I always feel better after a show. If you'd like a taste, give this one a try. Every show has a different feel. #liveradio #radioshow #djing #freeformradio #music #listening #performing #amateur

There are three of us in this marriage: me, him, and WFMU. But it’s not crowded.

For years I struggled for his attention — WFMU always had it. Once the children went on their own, all by myself, I took a train to Jersey City and joined the volunteer crowd of the best freeform, listener-supported, completely independent radio.

WFMU does not belong to any public broadcasting network. The programming is done in-house by volunteer DJs — “experimentation, spontaneity and humor are among the station's most frequently noted distinguishing traits."

And it’s that time of the year — WFMU MARATHON.

March 3rd through March 16th!

Tune in to win prizes, laugh your head off, and support the best non-commercial independent freeform listener-supported radio station to ever rock the airwaves.

91.1 FM or WFMU.ORG anywhere in the world

To pledge, call 800-989-9368.

The volunteer in the middle tilts his head and smiles quizzically (or enigmatically, or both) at the camera.The phone volunteers in the front row and emcee Jody Peyote mug for the camera.  There are big smiles, thumbs, and a peace sign.  The volunteer behind them smiles quietly but widely.Emcee Jody Peyote is in silhouette before the silhouette of her microphone and its stand.Emcee Jody Peyote has her eyes closed and is grinning a big genuine-looking grin.
