Sun. 11/11/07 12:00am From: RSTVMO

Show!

Sun. 11/11/07 12:02am From: Mark H.

That Shiny Two Shiny was gorgeous! Looks a little hard to find tho.

Sun. 11/11/07 12:06am From: mikey c

recently i have heard commercial radio using "space age batchelor pad music "in their advertising , i hope you had something to do with that$

Sun. 11/11/07 10:00am From: Irwin

The fun continues: check out Rich Hazelton's program which follows (archives: wfmu.org/playlists/IS). The man has taste; he programs free-form in an unpredictable, idiosyncratic style. I've long been a fan, even tho I have no idea why anyone would rig a bicycle pump to a dead rodent and brag about it.

Sun. 11/11/07 10:01am From: Lupica

I hope the rest of the WFMU staff and listenership will join me in my promotional efforts to get Rich to change his show description to "The man has taste". Hi Irwin.

Tue. 11/13/07 10:46am From: Listener Dave

Once upon a time, not that long ago there was a Day every week on WFMU that was unlike any other day. That Day was dubbed by some on the late-lamented message board as "Power Wednesdays". Your 9am-6pm lineup was Ken, Irwin and Kenny G. The best radio lineup. Ever. Alas, we have fallen on dark times and that lineup is no more (not to disparage those who bravely serve in those slots now of course, but it is difficult to follow legends).

Might Power Wednesday someday return? Only time will tell.
