WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #79, 10/29/2019
Well, another week, another varied show. This was our pre-Halloween show, so that means another track off The Taters now-legendary Halloween album, “Don’t Scream”. A couple of nights later, we played that entire album, cover to cover, while hanging out and passing out candy to trick-or-treaters. Such a cool record. But what other kinds of…

Well, it’s now fall, and I’m just now starting to put the finishing touches on the fun summer we had here at Twirl Radio. This episode was pretty exciting.

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #73, 9/10/2019
You know, I’ve been given three hours on Tuesday nights, in which to do whatever I please. Of course, that involves playing a whole lot of music. But I do tend to get motivated, aka, carried away. When planning for my shows, I usually hand select close to 80 songs. Trouble is, I’ve never gotten…

The number “8” is the luckiest number in Chinese culture. And if you look above, today’s show was show #888–extra lucky! And it proved to be true. You might recognize today’s guests–Christina Bulbenko and Rex Broome of Big Stir Records, and The Armoires! They were just on my show a few weeks ago, when they…

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #72, 9/3/2019
First show of September. That means fall, changing leaves, cooler temperatures, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and pumpkin spice everything. Right? Well, um, not so fast there. This is Sacramento, and we have a Reverse Groundhog Day thing going on. The groundhog saw his shadow, so we’ll be getting six more weeks of summer. Okay, that really isn’t…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #887 – 8/31/2019
On this week’s show, we took a break from the recent bounty of interviews, and simply brought you three hours of some of the finest recorded music available, both old and new, indie and not-so-indie. We’ll get back to interviewing today’s vital recording artists shortly. Artist | Track | Album The Babys | Isn’t It…

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #71, 8/27/2019
I just had a weird, fun idea, but I should have started it about 71 episodes ago. It came to me because I took a look at this week’s playlist, and noticed that there were 56 tracks on this show, and that this happened to be episode #71 of my show. So here’s the thought–I…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #886 – 8/24/2019: Interview doubleheader: Alexa Hunter of Disturbed Furniture and Ken Kurson of The Lilacs!
On this week’s episode, I had the chance to meet two artists whose bands were popular back in the day, then went dormant for decades, then recently re-formed their bands and released great new EPs. I mean, one success story like this would be pretty cool–but two in one show? Wow! In the first hour,…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #885 – 8/17/2019: Woodstock anniversary Big Stir invasion of the Twirl Radio studios!
Due to the high volume of fun this summer, I have been a little bit behind in posting these blogs and playlists for my radio shows. The show on Saturday, 8/17, just piled even more fun on the already prominent heap of fun that I’ve been involved with lately. This was the day, long planned,…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #884 – 8/10/2019: Special birthday guest co-host DJ Gidget Marusak of Woody Radio!
On this week’s show, the perfect storm happened: my dear friend DJ Gidget, co-owner of Woody Radio, was kind enough to have her birthday on a Saturday, the day that Twirl Radio is on the air. She’s a little shy about her birthday, but I took a chance and invited her onto Twirl, to celebrate.…
