Greetings dear listeners, thanks for your support of WFMU! If you pledge right here, as usual you can request the custom world music cd I've made for everyone who pledges $75 or more. This year's cd is Planet Disco - music from around the world incorporating a disco beat (and maybe a little house too).

Of course, if my cd doesn't float your boat you can choose a different DJ's premium (cd or otherwise) instead. (Or if you make a one-time or swag-for-life pledge at higher levels you can choose multiple DJ premiums.) You can see the full list of DJ CD premiums at https://wfmu.org/dj-premiums/.

This year for a pledge of $50 or more you get our spanking new Harp Strings Eternal T-Shirt designed by Arik Roper plus a WFMU sticker.



And for a $10 per month swag for life pledge - new or renewing - you'll receive a pair of WFMU Radio Tower Socks designed by Love & Victory.



Bump your monthly Swag For Life pledge to $15 a month (or make a one-time $180 pledge or multiple pledges adding up to $180 or more) and you'll receive our
— WFMU 3D New Jersey 45 Adapter cast in zinc and designed by Spragwerks
— 3 DJ Premiums
— Naming Rights to a WFMU Fixture



We love dollar a day Swag For Life pledgers - we call that a "Mouse of Today" pledge. And if you "drop a Mouse" on our show (a $365 one-time pledge or multiple pledges adding up to $365 or more also do the trick) you'll receive tons of swag! Including — the WFMU Tie Dye Bucket Hat with embroidered logo designed by Beezer Printing. — 5 DJ Premiums total

Pledge $500 or $41/mo and you’ll get everything above plus:
— WFMU Smashathon Crew Neck Sweatshirt designed by Brian Blomerth
— 10 DJ Premiums total
— 2 Prize Warehouse items



Pledge $1000 or $83/mo and you’ll get everything above plus:
- Take a trip on the WFMU Pirate Radio Cruise with a performance by the best band ever.
— 15 DJ Premiums total
— 3 Prize Warehouse items

Pledge $5000 or $416/mo and you’ll get everything above plus:
— A Customized Automatic Stainless Steel One-of-a-Kind WFMU Watch
— As many DJ Premiums as you want!

But any amount you can pledge is most fabulous and wonderful. And it just takes a $20 pledge to get the WFMU Desert Radio Bumper Sticker designed by Flannery Cashill, AND you’ll get in the running for a prize drawing for one of the great LPs I’m giving away to lucky pledgers this evening!



What is SWAG FOR LIFE? It's WFMU's sustaining donor program - where we ask you to commit to a small monthly donation and as our thank-you for that commitment, you receive LOTS of swag. Sustaining pledgers are critical to the station's financial health and we are hoping many of you decide to become "Swag For Lifers" this month! It's all explained at https://wfmu.org/swagforlife/.

SEE THE SWAG (what you get at various pledge levels - new sticker, new t-shirts, and lots of other brand new goodies at higher levels) at https://wfmu.org/swag.

And whatever you can pledge to support our very special radio station is so very much appreciated. Thanks soooooo much!

Are WFMUs lps, cds, k7s etc in a vault? Imagine the value! And are they insured. Is that even possible? I guess that is way too expensive. Would i find the 45 rpm single by Steve King - Satan is her name? Questions, questions 🧐

When I taught at Hunter College, I was 2-4 years older than my students (who were undergrads). Now, I'm the second oldest student in class. The class did a spit-take when I mentioned I saw braveheart as an undergrad. they thought I was 'their' age (they're mostly all 15-20+ years younger)
