Here's the piece WETA aired on Monday night about Takoma Radio! Proud to be a part of this mighty little broadcasting powerhouse for over 7 years now.... almost 8 if you count from when Scott @herbivorous.bsky.social and I applied & auditioned for our show in November 2017. 🎉📻

Once again, we've gathered a panel of outstanding individuals from the area with a truly diverse set of backgrounds and stories to tell. It's also a chance to mix, mingle, ask questions and share your own enterprising journey.
Excited to be a sponsor of the third annual event celebrating entrepreneurship in the greater Silver Spring community. The idea is to bring the engaging and supportive spirit of the GSSCC's OEC to a wider audience, providing insight, inspiration & real talk about starting & running a business here.
Yesterday's live music preview show is now available on Mixcloud. Thread of upcoming shows to follow (music from most but not all were featured in the show)

This year has only seen the collapse of civilization as we know it, but at least the music has still been there for us. Tune in this Tues (7/15) from 12-2, and let us provide a refuge from the madness with some of our favorite releases from the first half of 2025 at WOWD 94.3 and takomaradio.org!
We did a bit of talking on today's show to encourage listeners to visit takomaradio.org/donate during our fundraising week – but there was plenty of great music too! Check it out:

Elise of @oceanator.bsky.social was a delight on the show today! Listen here: www.mixcloud.com/rockrabbitho...
Athens, I'm ready for you!
On yesterday's show we highlighted bands playing at upcoming festivals near and far (+ one past): Austin Psychfest (TX), @liberationwknd.bsky.social (DC), Positve Force 40th Anniversary (DC), @skepwax.bsky.social Weekender (UK), @glasgoespop.bsky.social (UK) and the Athens Pop Underground Fest (GR)!
It's Bandcamp Friday which means all purchases today will go to the artists. Please consider overpaying for music by my friend Camilo's band Reset to financially support the music festival he organizes in Samaná, Colombia, which will take place on July 5 this year. ❤️🙏

Today's adventure in the Low Countries... #Belgium, The #Netherlands, and #Luxembourg. Of course these nations that punch way above their weight on the soccer field would do the same in the music field! The evidence:
@herbivorous.bsky.social and I had such a great time celebrating our show's 7th anniversary with radio legend @bob-boilen.bsky.social today! Check it out!
Was today's show a fool's errand? www.mixcloud.com/rockrabbitho...
TONIGHT! Bonus Rabbit rock action in WOWD-land! Walter is back in the studio from 6-7pm to warm things up for Scott (herbivorous.bsky.social), Chris (chrischafe.bsky.social) & Linda, who will be sitting in for Sara on Indie Penchant from 7-9! Listen from anywhere on takomaradio.org!
Today's rock action... without the allergic reaction! For my part, I followed the rainbow around the world looking for a little luck….
What's that thing David Byrne told us not to worry about? This Tuesday (3/11), we'll anxiously explore the increasingly deserted halls of bureaucracy in search any kind of public-sector salvation. This test of government letters begins at noon EDT on WOWD 94.3 Takoma Radio and takomaradio.org.
Just listen to the lefties at the Cato Institute for a useful history lesson.
Might I suggest you drown out the angry man's ranting by turning up the volume on these amazing women.
Sad to say that this is where I’m at right now: After over 2 hours of incredible music by a top-notch jazz ensemble, the leader mentions that he played in Crimea four years after annexation and will be playing in Belarus later this year. I can’t stand the blatant Putin #artwashing and leave. Slava 🇺🇦
A brilliant & cathartic evening of raging punk rock in the friendly subterranean confines of the Quarry House yesterday! Enjoyed meeting @g-kwiatkowski.bsky.social and his @trupatrupa.bsky.social bandmates in person. Lovely human beings all.
Here's a replay of today's Rock & Roll Rabbit Hole featuring @trupatrupa.bsky.social .... See you at the Quarry House on Thursday!

Tune in tomorrow (Feb 25) for my interview with @g-kwiatkowski.bsky.social of Polish post-punk band @trupatrupa.bsky.social plus tracks from their brand new Mourners EP and much more! Airing from noon-2pm US Eastern / 18-20:00 CET, at takomaradio.org and WOWD 94.3 in our DC broadcast area.
Undoubtedly the patriotic thing to do. 🇺🇸
Got an amazing first look at the new exhibit of the art and design of Czech art nouveau pioneer Alphonse Mucha at The Phillips today. An unexpected aspect was the display of numerous psychedelic 1960s album covers and posters that were clearly inspired by this gilded age maestro.
