WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #27, 8/14/2018
You may have noticed that this Tuesday night show of mine doesn’t have a name. Every other time I’ve done a radio show, I’ve named it. I’ve given my shows fancy names like “Twirl”, “The Tuesday Night Diner”, and “The California Diner”. Ok, full disclosure: those are the only other shows I’ve done. So why…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #837 – 8/11/2018: Karen Haglof interview!
Today’s show featured an interview with oncologist/singer-songwriter (a rare combination, to be sure) Karen Haglof. The New York City-based physician/musician sent us a sneak preview of her forthcoming EP, “Palomino Steady Rocking”, and it is terrific. She had written a whole batch of songs, intended for her next album, and four of those all were…

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #26, 8/7/2018
It’s August, and the air in Sacramento has been hot and smoky. Just tons of pollution due to all the forest fires in Northern California. August came in like a lion–or more to the point, a dragon–I have no idea what it will go out like So this was a good opportunity to close all…

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #25, 7/24/2018
This show was a minor milestone for me–show #25! Yes–the 25th time that the gatekeepers at Woody Radio let their guard down and let me sneak in undetected and enabled me to do a show! This was also the last live show before a two week hiatus (of which we are in the middle of,…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #835 – 7/21/2018
Today’s show was a chance to enjoy a laid-back summer afternoon in Sacramento. I decided to take a slight break from the interviews this afternoon. I’d done so many over the past few months–some days, I did two and even three interviews–in a single episode! And I was given the opportunity to do a couple…

WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #24, 7/17/2018
It seems that tonight’s show was brought to you by the letter “H”. Why? Well, because we played Juliana Hatfield, Robyn Hitchcock, and then ended our double overtime(!) with a 3 song run of honeychain (featuring Hillary Burton), The Handcuffs, and then Jimi Hendrix. It wasn’t an intentional theme, but just a little something I…

Twirl Radio Playlist – Show #834 – 7/14/2018: In-studio interviews/performances with Sean O’Brien and Rick Hromadka!
Gifts. That’s what I was given on this show. It appears that July 14 was the day to be in Sacramento. Both Sean O’Brien and Rick Hromadka, longtime Twirl favorites, were going to be in the area, and were available for a visit. So a musical meeting of the minds was going to happen. The…
