Both of these short electronic pieces played right around that time... art-into-life.bandcamp.com/track/isccah... intlanthem.bandcamp.com/track/untitl...

funny coincidence, we just did a 2-hour special playing tunes from fallout this past sunday: archive.wxyc.org/?t=202605171...

Oh I can help with this! Roughly what time was it? Feel free to @ us if you need a track ID from the robot – we're working on integrating it with the normal playlist.

For @oxfordamerican.bsky.social's new spring food issue, I set out to answer a question that has puzzled me for a long time: Why are there so many heartbroken men drinking wine (at the honky tonk, no less) in classic country songs?? oxfordamerican.org/magazine/iss...

"Spotify Wrapped came and went—with its unsettling promise to be “more dynamic, personal, and unmistakably you than ever before”—but its annual dopamine hit had dulled to a slight ping; both the social and discovery aspects seemingly having evaporated into the algorithm."

Who needs spotify when you've got *checks notes* 60 thousand records, 2 turntables, and 150 undergrads with nothing better to do.

Great job everyone! We got to 1k. Took a little longer than 2 minutes so you get 3 repeats. Listen at wxyc.org or on our app.

If we can get 1000 followers in the next 2 minutes I’ll play In The Air Tonight on repeat for 30 minutes.

New in our iOS app! You can now make a song request directly from the app! Or if you're feeling lazy, ask Siri to do it for you by saying "make a request to WXYC".

@wxyc.org just played something so rad. We thought our air conditioner was breaking in the office midway through a sick pop song, but it was actually part of the record. Respected that Brecht game!

If we’re celebrating 50 years of music I want that disco to be loud as hell.

oh yeah that'd be awesome. the forest theatre on campus is also a much slept on venue. we've done some shows there before.

wxyc @wxyc.org · 18/03/2025

Yeah a fest would be tiptop. My current pie in the sky dream is to do it in the hangar of the decommissioned UNC airport.
