SHOW 175: YEAR NINE RECAP - this Tuesday August 4, 2026 at 7 pm

Hi! Please tune in to the Show 175: Year Nine Recap, airing this Tuesday August 4.

As in previous years, this is the chronological recap of the previous twelve months of Intro-Climax-Outro.

BACKGROUND: 

Intro-Climax-Outro started when KUZU started, in August 2017. This recap occurs on each anniversary, on the first Tuesday of August.

In this recap, I select one "favorite" song per episode from the 'fiscal' year that just ended. The selections are played chronologically in the order the episodes appeared.

Usually I have to skip some episodes in the recap due to time constraints, but that's not the case this year since I was somewhat busy this year and missed some episodes (sorry about that!).

NOTE: These year-end recaps are the only times songs are repeated within numbered Intro-Climax-Outro episodes.

THE CRITERIA:

Obviously, I like all the songs played on Intro-Climax-Outro, or I wouldn't play them. I pick "favorites" for the recap based on my feelings (duh), but also based on lesser, supporting factors like a song's obscurity.

THE RULE:

An artist can only appear on one year-end recap.

There are artists who appear regularly on Intro-Climax-Outro, but they can only appear once on a year-end recap.

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY - Show 174 will air Tuesday July 7, 2026 instead

 Hi! Sorry for the technical difficulty. The internet stream was done, so I switched to the previous episode. 

We fixed the stream about 25 minutes into the show, but I just let the rerun play anyway.

Show 174 (the originally-scheduled show for today) will instead air NEXT WEEK, July 7, 2026.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

NO SHOW - Tuesday May 19, 2026

Hi! There will be no show or rerun this week because I have to attend an engagement. 

I recently joined the board of an established, area nonprofit, and the meetings may cause one schedule conflict every other month. If so, I plan to make it up with new shows on the 5th Tuesdays.

I hate missing a broadcast entirely. But joining this board is a neat opportunity, and the schedule conflict doesn't warrant me changing my established time slot.

Anyway, I'll be back on June 2 with the next episode. Thanks!
