Yes, this is my first show during derby for WFMU but I have had many others - It can get pretty nuts if you are into all of that. I often just try to pick up as many extra paying DJ gigs as I can. Work a bunch prior to Derby but post race on Saturday it begins to die down - folks have been drunk and partying for close to 2 weeks at that point.
Belmont is run far enough from me that we don't see much of the action in NJ (over on Long Island). Even the Super Bowl being in my county didn't really create anything like the Derby in our area, and it's just 30 min from me. Although my landlord did warn us all against AirBnB'ing our apartments for desperate football fans.
Ah, now that's a holiday I can get behind. (I remember now that I saw the Belmont run in a Vegas sportsbook once, and it was utterly bozo-berserk there. Also it was a massive upset and folks were not pleased.)

Phil Cohran is unsung -- even relative to the overall unsung levels of improv in general.
I love Cohran - I think I have 4 or 5 LPs, my buddy who owns a record store in Rogers Park in Chicago says he is at his shop all the time... He lives down the street.
Hunter Thompson described folks making bank just letting out their lawns as parking. "Yep, just park right on top of the flowers, don't worry" (cash register noise)
Thanks James! It's a fun LP. Happy to oblige David... At times I change it up - Global music can be from anywhere, yes?

Yes but the name of this show is misleading. I expect it to be something like Bodega Pop. I will say that you have one of the best radio voices ever though
I appreciate your feedback, but I do want the show to represent jams both domestic and foreign... it should showcase all types of music, and as much as I love Bodega Pop I wouldn't want GG to sound like anything other than what it does. But speaking direct to your comment, I haven't played "international sounds" in a few weeks. Anyway, hope you enjoy it.
I always like where this program roams, no matter how wide the circle it scribes on the globe!

Sorry, I know the tone of my message is smart-alecky.. world music programs are few and far between though. I can hear Miles Davis on a hundred shows. And yes, all the dee jays at GTD Radio play whatever they feel. That's good and not so good. Mayuko has refused to play music that I requested.
No worries whatsoever. I like my shows to be organic. Some are planned - some not. It often depends on how Monday goes. If you listen back through the archive you will find many many international shows. The only thing I can guarantee is that each show begins with a jazz piece.
on "global"...
"The UN proposal of 1982 would create a socialistic system of control and regulation of the seas. It embodied an outmoded 1970s view of the world, where the United States was a part of a global community. Reagan would not approve the convention. If the nation was to realize the full potential of President Reagan's vision, we must create a forward-looking oceans policy that serves the many and complicated interests of the United States' people specifically."
