August 31, 2024: Rob and Katie's Labor of Love
The twenty-third edition of an annual late summer tradition: Rob Weisberg and longtime sidekick Katie Gentile play radio ping-pong, trading tracks back and forth. Rob bounces popular and unpopular music from around the world off Katie's vintage and contemporary indie rock. It's genre-clashing at its FMU-iest.
Rob, as you may know, is an unpaid radio DJ and record geek. Katie, on the other hand, is an academic, a Gradiva Award winning author,
open-water swimmer and violinist in the band The Special Pillow.

but, i did know a "Dave the Pimp," mid-1980s -- not a "pimp" in the stereotypical, fictionalized definition of the word (and of course worked under a different name than his given name of "David")
