A couple of old skasters got loose in the house tonight.  Catch’em for good luck!

A Paul Simon profile!  Poetry and Music from this understated elder statesman of song.  A wonderful career filled with multi-levels of meanings in the notes and words.  Giving and outgoing with a honourable life.  Listen for that deep African soul that he has been gifted with.  Ancient and wise.

I’m still looking for some tough slam poets to contribute their wisdom in pieces about a minute and a half.  vicious outlook preferred. aliens welcomed. AI too.

This weeks recommended website. https://www.tameri.com/exist/. Everything you’ll ever want to know about Existentialism.  And more…

I’m happy to say that I’ve gifted the station with my digital library.  Over 20,000 songs ranging from T Texas Tyler to Philip Glass.  Music of Mali to obscure 7” punk singles.  All sorts of jazz from the thirties to fifties, Monk, Coltrane and Davis.  Tom Waits and the Stranglers. And probably more styles than you can think of.

In the future you won’t be able to hear this material unless you pay for it on some streaming service.  I hope years from now you and your children will be able to enjoy it. Over 40 years of collecting.

Movie of the week. The Name of the Rose with the immortal Sean Connery.  Written by the brilliant Umberto Eco.  Please go to Wiki to look him up.  Twisted mystery set in a 14th century monastery.  As convoluted as the labyrinth of the library.  Everyone is Guilty and are Consumed.  The story of early thought control by the church.  The denial of knowledge should be a sin.

A short blues set, a great big love and Talking Heads.  What more could you want!

Lots of live tracks tonight.  A euro only release of some REM and a live track from Elvis Costello recorded at the Elmo. 

Try to think of listening to no crap as being a course in musicology.  When you challenge yourself to study you force yourself to grow.  Music is the oldest continuous form of communication.  The beat of the drum through the primordial night to 360 degree 3D sound through headsets. It has been with us always. A gift of god…

This weeks movie Fahrenheit 451.  The original from 1966.  Brilliantly shot and a great story.  Not so great acting or character development.  Dark dystopian aspects of social control that we see happening right now.  (They are taking hundreds of books out of libraries and schools in America.)  Bradbury was essentially a futurist and he along with Harlan Ellison and Philip K. Dick showed us the reality of now.  You can’t say you weren’t warned.

Ten percent of the jobs in Korea are now done by Robots.

Kimmy K just got the first Optimus companion robot.  Saw some pictures of this thing getting into a car and making heart gestures with his metal fingers.

Now I’m scared.

The Dropkick Murphy’s for some truth and some punky type stuff to get you dancing.

This weeks web site. https://www.wikiart.org. A fantastic data base of 20th century art.  Most of the work is never seen.

Me.  nocrapradio@yahoo.com   send tough poetry in a mp3 and I ‘ll try to get it on the air.  The time for Mercy has passed.  Panic runs Riot and there are no excuses left.

Serious fun week…. It’s all in the mix.

Hope you’ve enjoyed the mix so far. Tonight a genius woman named Natalie, tonight a genius woman named Nico, the true cost of wars no end, some real glam from a dinosaur and a wicked cure cover to kick it off.

Robot news report!  Bender for Leader!  Yeah I’m a Futurama fan.

I’ve been on for a couple of months now and still learning my way around.

If you like trancy-type hypno groove check out the show Merkaba Radio with host Brandon Szabo here every Saturday night 8 – 9 pm.  Smooth.

Odd truths?   

What say of it? what say CONSCIENCE grim, That spectre in my path?

-Chamberlayne’s Pharonnida

This weeks movie recommendation. Child of Man.  What if time.  Catch the allegory in the movie when she disrobes and we see she is very pregnant.  She is in a barn surrounded by animals.  A compelling Jesus reference.  It shows what happens when the births stop.  Just stop.  Hope is lost.

Another one that deals with infertility is a TUBI movie called Colony.  Those who left a devastated Earth return.  Dark vision of the barbarian we are at heart.  And how we can transcend that.

Don’t forget I’m looking for some slam poets to give me words of wisdom in a minute and a half.  In-fighters only (anger optional). Maybe a man of faith, maybe a man of none.  The voice of woman always welcomed.

Hey pj, how did you get so smart?   https://musicbrainz.org

Have to tell everyone around here that I’ve been very impressed with the quality of music that the djs put out.  Isn’t it refreshing to be treated as intelligent adults as opposed a commodity that can’t wait for the next big thing to be played by Pete and Brenda in the morning or the rocking drive time with Dave in the afternoon?  God I hate the corporate conglomerates that control mostly everything.  And radio stars.  Have I mentioned how I Hate radio stars?

We’ve got some fundraising going on right now so keep listening and contact us if you can help out.

Looking for slam poets to give me some insight in a minute and a half.  Send me an mp3 of your abstract wisdom and i’l try to get it on the air.  Gotta have the strength to tell the truth.

“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say, we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know“.   Donald Rumsfeld

This weeks movie. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai. Staring Peter Weller.  Great Sci-fi satire.  Campy, action packed, steam punky.  It’s on TUBI streaming.  Over the top fun!  Lectroids from Planet 10 by way of the 8th dimension…
