THE PREMIUM: An instant collector's item, mixmaestro Steinski has compiled a massive trove of his rarities, unreleased creations, and live performances for WFMU'S 2012 fund-raising Marathon. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS must-have collection—an astounding 13+ hours of audio—compiled on a single DVD.
The premium also features video of a 2-hour lecture Steinski gives to enrapt students at a university in the UK.

Chas.:
Dang, Doug. You just sold the premium so well that I have to raise my pledge to $180 to get it along with yours.
But how do I do that? Do I make a new pledge of the remainder? Will FMU's corps of mathematicians add them together for me?
12:22pm
Danne D:
@Chas - yes. So for example if your original pledge was $75, you would now pledge $105.
Indicate in the comments that you are upping a previous pledge to get to the 3-premium level.

okay, computer disorder done with. boom. nice to hear a snippet of "more human than human" there.
LJFW, I am not kidding when I say this may be the most amazing FMU premium of all time.

Ya gotta do what ya gotta do listener james! :)

michael shelley says his premium is the greatest. aw, the friendly competition amongst the wfmu d.j.s.
12:34pm
Chas.:
Insidious.
12:35pm
Danne D:
Picking premiums is one of the biggest challenges come marathon time. There's just so much great stuff on them and they are put together with such care.
12:38pm
Van in DC:
I guess the original airing of this on Steinski had a LOT of BLEEPs in it over the radio :)
That's right, Van. Steinski is a master at overlaying things to avoid that problem creatively.

Danne D:
Doug, the original Steinski episode aired after Seven Second Delay if I'm not mistaken? How's that for a transition :)
The thing is that the great transitions between shows and such variety therein sucks you in and gets you into more and more different genres. You let the radio linger a little before changing and discover something new. It's one of the magical aspects of FMU.
Now with the stream shows, you might be popping onto the site to check out archives and see one of the game webstream shows on and decide to check that out. Different paths of discovery.
12:41pm
Danne D:
100% on that Doug - one of those fun aspects of Steinski's shows :)
Danne D, that is very likely. They've tried to have pre-recorded shows follow Seven Second Delay.
That was in the early days of SSD. Broadcast from the old house in East Orange, NJ.

listener james from westwood:
i think it was courtesy of ken i first heard "the snatch." back when you could slllliiiiide something like that onto the air without being hassled by the man.
Hey Doug, is there something wrong healthwise with Steinski?
