Favoriting October 14, 2017: Filling in for Todd-O-Phonic... Falling into Autumn with a live set from the Low Doses!


WFMU’s cash-flow problem is the stuff of monster movies, and our October Fundraiser -- the Into-the-Black campaign -- is here to help carry us through the leanest months of the year. If you are not a Swag-4-Life monthly donor, PLEASE join the campaign this month! And if you’re already in the Swag-4-Life program, please increase your monthly donation by whatever amount is doable. We are hoping to increase our roster of Swag 4 Lifers from 2000 to 4000 during this fundraiser. Help out the Freeform Station of the Nation by making a pledge to WFMU though the link at the top of this page!
