NASH FM

Turned on the radio today expecting country music on KSJO 92.3, but heard Bollywood music instead -- will the station feature a mix of international music or will it be Bollywood music 24/7?

Looking for a Quebecois Fix

If I had a Sirius XM subscription I would listen to Sur La Route, if available. (I first heard it in a rental car several Christmases ago.) Are there any internet radio sites for [traditional] Quebecois music?

Sur La Route

Classical radio is coming back to the Bay Area -- more info. Meanwhile, it looks like 92.3 is in the process of being changed from a 24/7 Chinese radio station.

Berkeley Old Time Music Convention Spring Situation

"A free afternoon of old-time stringband picking, singing and dancing, including a family dance, cabaret-style concert sets, jam sessions and workshops galore on all manner of making music with people."

The night before, there is a square dance for the BOTMC at the Ashkenaz. (I still haven't ventured into the local ECD/contra dance scene.)

Not Proof of Life but a real K&R company

Last night on Coast to Coast AM, Brad Barker, the head of HALO Corporation was interviewed. His company deals with personal security and K&R. In fact, they produce the Discovery show, Kidnap and Rescue. He mentioned the company was looking for forward deployed medics and I thought of Sarge.

A preview of the C2C episode:

I was wondering what 91.5 was, as it has a show on Thursday mornigns for American, Celtic, and bluegrass music. (The show announced the above concert.) It turns out to be Cupertino's listener-supported radio station, KKUP.

WNTA Radio Youngblood and Fleming

Apparently Dr. Fleming's appearances on the Paul Youngblood Show are being archived - I don't know if they will maintain a large archive or just the most recent episode. Last Friday's episode is up. (The zipped file.)

Dr. Fleming on the radio again

From Mr. Scott Richert, on FB:
Thomas Fleming, editor of Chronicles and President of The Rockford Institute, will be on the Paul Youngblood Show on WNTA (1330 AM) July 1, from 3 to 5 P.M CDT. Listen live at http://www.wnta.com/WNTAPlayer.aspx, and call (815) 874-8255 to ask Tom a question.

Dr. Fleming notes that his presence on the show will now be a regular occurrence. (Every Friday, as long as he is in town.)

Listener-supporter radio in the Bay Area

With the recent changes in the local radio stations, I've been scanning the channels more often. KPFA has some decent classical hours and last weekend I discovered "Panhandle Country", which airs at 3:00 PM every other Sunday. (I believe it alternates with Pig in a Pen.) The host is a bit of a Marxist (so I gathered from his comments about May 1 being the true Labor Day, recognized by the rest of the world and which the U.S. will not adopt...), but the music is excellent. (What should I expect from a radio station located in Berkeley.)


Archive of past shows: Panhandle Country, Pig in a Pen

Now if we could get a radio station to replace the loss of classical KDFC. (Which apparently still exists, but covers barely beyond Napa.) KDFC is no longer commercial but is listerner-supported, just like KPFA.

95.7 has changed format -- it's no longer country but is now a sports station. First we lost the 24-hr classical music station. Now one of the local country music stations is gone. That leaves just KRTY. Soon I won't be bothering with the radio but will just bring a mp3 player with me instead.

Patrick Deneen is correct with this assessment

NPR Does Something Right: "Diane Rehm has selected Wendell Berry’s novel Hannah Coulter as the “Reader Review” book for November. The program will air on Wednesday, November 24 at 11 a.m."

I don't know if an audio file for this episode of the Diane Rehm Show will posted online after the show airs.

Does NPR do enough good to justify its existence?

Radio station for traditional Korean music: Gugak FM. I think livestream is available.

Coming next weekend on the BBC's The Early Music Show:

11 Apr 2009 13:00–14:00
BBC Radio 3
Philip II and Mary Tudor
Lucie Skeaping presents music from both the courts of Philip II of Spain and Mary Tudor.

BBC Early Music Show

I haven't gone to the website since moving away from Boston last year--looks like Andrew Manze is no longer one of the hosts. It should still be a good reason to tune into BBC Radio (programs are available online for one week after the broadcast).

Another program: Choral Evensong
