Who am I?

Fanatic about music, in about every genre. I collect cover songs. Very interested in the state/fate of fm radio. MANY years as a radio DJ, lifetime passion/obsession for music, and I also co-host a sweet podcast on the list!

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

Our podcast is about music, the radio industry, and our shared experiences in the college and commercial radio industries.

What is my podcast playlist about?

This playlist is full of great podcasts discussing music, often in a hilarious way. Some are structured, others more free form, but all good!

The podcasts I picked and why

1. XRadioX

Why this podcast?

We have a blast every episode! We discuss music, the history and inner workings of radio, both commercial and college, and everything in between. With 475 years of experience between us, you can ask us ANYTHING about radio and if we don't know, we'll make it up in a fun way!

Matt and Jayce are two ex college radio guys who became ex professional radio guys who are now professionally guys in other professions. Tune in to see if you get Matt & Jayce, Prufrock & Jayce "the Ace", The Doctors of Love or maybe you'll just get two guys yelling at people to get off their lawn. Whichever pair shows up you'll get two guys talking about things they want to talk about, in the way they want to talk about them because there is no pesky Program Director to tell them they're doing it wrong.

Each episode pulls apart a song from about every angle, giving you all the backstory behind the lyrics, the composition, and other fun facts, typically from the original artist and/or producer.
