In lieu of a commentary to accompany this week's playlist, I want to link you to my recent guest appearance on The Spoon podcast with Robbie Rist, Chris Jackson, and Thom Bowers. an episode they called "Haha, I'm On The Radio! (The Carl Cafarelli Story)." The discussion there touches on a lot of stuff directly related to This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio, as well as how this little mutant radio show feeds my writing, my books, and my ongoing efforts to locate soapboxes to scale and podiums to pound. If you like whatever the hell it is we do here on TIRnRR, odds are better'n decent you'll dig spending some time with The Spoon.
You know what else you'll dig? THIS SHOW! My gosh, when it comes to slappin' together The Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin' Planet, Dana and I are infallible. Evidence of that infallibility is displayed below. If you missed the Sunday night webcast, check out the schedule for encore presentations. It's ALL pop music! And this is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like on another Sunday night in Syracuse this week.
This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl airs Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, streaming at SPARK stream, and on the Radio Garden app as WESTCOTT RADIO. If you miss the show, it repeats immediately from Midnight to 3 AM on Monday, Thursday from 9 AM to Noon, Friday from 5 PM to 8 PM, and finally Sunday from Noon to 3 PM before a new show takes over that evening. All times are Eastern.
You can read all about this show's long and weird history here: Boppin' The Whole Friggin' Planet (The History Of THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO). You can follow Carl's daily blog at Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do).
