Street interviews, listener call-ins, vinyl gluttery, sporadic normalcy, original floperas and fiktion, blatant talking over songs, politix, tenderness, and a vague undercurrent of angst. Right up your alley!

my mother fell prey to an organ salesman (not in a dirty sense). she was 73 and she bought a lowrey millenium - seventy thousand fucking dollars! she was the first sucker in the country to buy one. they gave her a 30 year loan - at 73 THEY GIVE HER A 30 YEAR LOAN! we were lucky to sell it for half price after she passed.

Hey ted--the station is still "licensed" to East Orange, so they announce that instead of where the studio is, in Jersey City. To top it off, the main transmitter is still where it always was--in West Orange.

@ted so basically the explanation Ken offered literally is that it's whatever the FCC says it is. So they could tell them it has to be Jersey City or East Orange or wherever they want - I think there was an article buried in an old LCD article where Ken basically said that around the time of the move.

i think the premium should be an hour long commercial like this for the songs - i don;t want to hear the whole songs, just clays promo for them.
