Show 160: YEAR EIGHT RECAP - this Tuesday August 5, 2025 at 7 pm

Hi! Please tune in to the Show 160 - the Year Eight Recap, airing tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 pm CDT!

As you probably know, Intro-Climax-Outro started on the first Tuesday of August 2017, so each year in early August there is an anniversary episode recapping the recently-ended "fiscal" year. As usual, this episode will highlight one song per episode, in chronological order - this time from Shows 146-159.

Per an unofficial rule of mine, a year-end recap cannot include an artist who was in a previous year-end recap. 

Sidenote: I really wanted to squeeze an extra episode in last week, but I went on a quick road trip with the fam. I didn't say that earlier because the house would've been sitting empty, lol.

RERUN* - tomorrow (Tuesday) July 1, 2025 at 7 pm

Hi! I'm going to air a rerun tomorrow. Then I will air new episodes on July 15th and 29th. So the Fifth Tuesday Rerun will instead be a new episode.

My birthday was this weekend, a friend is in town for a few days, and KUZU had its annual record convention on Saturday plus fesitivities. With all of that going on, I didn't get to finalize the episode I had in the works.

About the rerun: four years ago in 2021 my birthday fell on the 5th Tuesday of the month, so I put together a special birthday mix of some of my favorite tracks from prior episodes. It was called the 5th Tuesday Birthday Blowout Flashback. I still listen to it a lot and have always wanted to play it again, so here we go!

Hi! Please tune in to Show 158, this Tuesday (tomorrow) at 7 pm!

Apologies for having no show on Tuesday June 3. I flew to NYC to see the band Tennis play at Pier 17 in NYC, for their final tour. The show was Sunday June 1, so I flew out that morning and spent a few nights (including Tuesday). I initially considered doing a show anyway, but figured I'd be doing something else when the time came (which was correct).

But anyway, please tune in tomorrow night!

This is the more of that late70s/early 80s music that you could imagine hearing at the mall on a Saturday afternoon, or maybe while out running errands. The kind of stuff you notice in the mall hallway near Guest Services, while trying to find the restroom, and you think "man, this song is pretty nice".

Hi! Please tune in to a special, all-new this Tuesday at 7 pm, featuring the retun of my good friend Jeff. Show 151: Battle Of The Gods.

Ok, maybe not that serious, lol. We wanted to do an episode where we each pick a song from a list of artists who are huge, legendary, Gods. We figured it would be fun since nearly everyone has an opinion about these artists and their catalogues.

Plus it's always fun recording with Jeff, who has been a close friend and musical peer for over twenty years!

The artists we chose from were:

• Frank Sinatra
• the Beatles
• Simon & Garfunkel
• the Beach Boys
• Judee Sill
• Fleetwood Mac

So tune in! Maybe we chose the song you love, the one you hate, or one from the album you never got around to purchasing.

Show 150 - this Tuesday (tomorrow) January 21, 2025 at 7 pm

Hi! Please tune in to an all-new Show 150 this Tuesday at 7 pm.

This episode features piano-based songs that I've been compiling over time. I guess you could call them ballads, but they're quite varied in mood. They also have additional instrumentation beyond piano. 

Sorry for the delay on announcing it. I planned on airing the episode I recorded with my buddy Jeff, but when I started working on it a few days ago I realized it will require more editing than I anticipated. 

So then I decided to do the piano show instead. But then I worried it would seem like a mopey political statement occurring the day after inauguration (which it isn't). 

Without getting political, I can say that this show, this music, community radio, and art are leagues above the political and capitalistic wankery plaguing this planet at the moment. So why alter the itinerary? On with the piano ballads!
