An exploration of the vast trove of music from the 20th century, from 1999 back to 1928, across multiple genres, generally tied together by a theme of sorts. Lots of the various styles of rock, pop, blues, soul/funk, jazz and more. Sometimes observing musician birthdays and/or album release anniversaries. Once in a while throwing in a new-ish song just to keep you on your toes. Striving for an interesting and enjoyable mix of the familiar and obscure. Requests, questions, comments welcome here: [email protected] Thanks for listening!
Power Pop
All The Feels
Music is all about making you feel something, so get all up in your feels every Sunday from 1-3 pm! Hear some Midwest emo, East Coast hardcore, ska, maybe even some old country, just depending on the day! Experience all the feels.
Static Disaster
Do you like listening to some washed up hipster on a nostalgia trip talk about a place he hasn’t lived in nearly four years all the while playing songs that sound like someone yelling through a telephone receiver for an hour straight?
Then tune in to Static Disaster hosted by Jon Wain every Wednesday Morning from 8-9AM to kick start your mid week with some Rock ‘n’ Roll. You may also wish to speak with an LMHC.
Wiggle Room
Hail! Hail! This hour of hip-shakin garage rawk, fuzz-drenched psych, power pop, and glam with wiggle room for real gone tunes from nowheresville, desperate haunts of rock and roll, and misfit oddities, plus b-movie, bizarre sound clips, long gone gems of ‘toons, and cult weirdo throwbacks, mostly from the mid-century. Tune in!
There’s worse ways of being desperate than being poor- Exene Cervenka
I intend to party lightly, slightly, politely, and if possible all nightly- Fred Sanford
Cesspool of Sin

The UnCola
Every Tuesday at 8 PM est, we play Forgotten Pop from the last 50 years. You may hear a Horn Rock Blast, a WestCoast Breeze, an Un-Cover, a Forgotten Top 40, or an UnSung Hero.
