PLAYLIST FOR “WORDS FOR WORDLE” (5.21.22)

30 May

Axiom…Thumb…Under…Triad -I know, it sounds like some words I missed on a sixth grade spelling test. Well, they’re also words I’ve been using to play the addictive, time-suck word game, Wordle, figuring out the five-letter word of the day. Probably many in my audience play Wordle during my show. You can imagine how happy I am not to have their full attention. Putting that aside, I offered them a bunch of five-letter words to improve their game. Who says public service radio is dead?

BIG NEWS!! TWO SHOWS THIS WEEK!! (4.30.22)

27 Apr

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You’ll be doing plenty of this (whatever this is) when I sit in as host on American Jukebox, two hours of rock hits from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. 4-6 PM (Eastern Time)

 

 

Then you’ll be doing plenty of this when I play jazz versions of the same musical themes I played on American Jukebox. 9:00 PM (Eastern Time)

 

 

 

Or maybe you’ll just be doing plenty of this – which is what you usually do.

HINT FOR THIS WEEK’S MUSICAL THEME (4.23.22)

20 Apr

HINT:

 

It’s Fundraising Week at WMNR Fine Arts Radio! Sure, some people would rather have a root canal and some radio stations think it’s like pulling teeth. But I know MY audience – the best damned audience in radio – will be calling me Saturday night to pledge their support and dollars for Turntable For One. And how about this? Anyone who calls and pledges can also make a request –  song or artist – and I’ll play it during the second hour.
