Turned on @wxpnfm.bsky.social. Heard Catbite. Instantly knew @kristenkurtis.bsky.social was back.
I’m so excited for the xx to have announced they are going to tour. Love hearing them on @wxpnfm.bsky.social. Thank you, @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
That’s Dan❤️🩹🦅
Only my 6-year-old would clap hearing that it’s @barteesstrange.bsky.social’s birthday. @kristenkurtis.bsky.social @wxpnfm.bsky.social
I missed the tribute to our mutual friend @dhm.bsky.social on @wxpnfm.bsky.social, but thanks for making sure he had his moment, @kristenkurtis.bsky.social. ❤️❤️❤️
As @jenniferkates.bsky.social reminds me, it was Dan McQuade who was at Hannibal Burress's October 2014 show at the Troc when he said “You rape women, Bill Cosby,” happened to be recording it, made it go viral, and from then on no one ever could forget or deny who Bill Cosby was.
My last messages with him were him saying that I don’t always need to give him credit for the idea every time I get asked about my run. Joke’s on him: I never was going to agree to that and I still don’t.
I’m so thankful for the way his article kick-started this amazing event in my life that introduced me to so many people, but he was the first. I’ll miss texting him about it every year. May his memory be a blessing. Sending love this his family and close friends.
As always, I kicked off every run thanking Dan for his crazy idea and for all the people it’s brought together.
I first discovered @dhm.bsky.social’s writing when his article about Rocky’s running route when viral in 2013. I emailed him the day the article came out to get his permission to turn it into a real run. The past December, the 13th Annual Rocky 50k was run.
It’s a tour made for you!!!
Tori Amos > Bartees Strange. I see you @kristenkurtis.bsky.social, given the tour announcement. @wxpnfm.bsky.social
I can’t hear “Danny’s Song” without thinking of it being in Wet Hot American Summer. Am I the only one?! @wxpnfm.bsky.social @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
The Format into Bloc Party into Yeah Yeah Yeahs on @wxpnfm.bsky.social. What is this, my high school playlist?! (I am dying, this playlist rules) @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
Odd sensation to dance with your 3-year-old to songs you adored in high school. Bloc Party is for all!! @wxpnfm.bsky.social @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
Daft Punk to Courtney Barnett to Fleetwood Mac is why I love @wxpnfm.bsky.social. Thanks for great tunes, @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
Love how much @kristenkurtis.bsky.social also loves Christine and the Queens. Truly an under appreciated artist! @wxpnfm.bsky.social
Not much sillier of a song than “(I'm Spending) Hanukkah in Santa Monica” by Tom Leher. Love hearing it on @wxpnfm.bsky.social. Thanks, @kristenkurtis.bsky.social
Love hearing Leon Russell’s “Tightrope” on @wxpnfm.bsky.social. My dad introduced me to this and it’s nice to have a happy memory of him this morning. Missing him around the holidays, so this was a nice memory.
Man, @wxpnfm.bsky.social is crushing it this afternoon! Some Jukebox the Ghost and a few songs later, White Rabbits. Two under-appreciated bands!
It’s like @kristenkurtis.bsky.social knew today is my son’s birthday and he’s a huge Bartees Strange fan. Having a family dance party to “Boomer” now!! @wxpnfm.bsky.social 🥰🥰🥰🥰
@kristenkurtis.bsky.social single-handedly making my husband so happy by playing The Wallflowers. @wxpnfm.bsky.social
The Beatles into Hot Chip is my personality and why I love @wxpnfm.bsky.social.
I missed this, but good to see you briefly yet the expo! How was your race?
This run on @wxpnfm.bsky.social this morning 🤌🤌🤌
Will forever appreciate @wxpnfm.bsky.social and @kristenkurtis.bsky.social for keeping Sharon Jones’ memory alive with her amazing music.
@kristenkurtis.bsky.social playing my loves, Hall and Oates this morning on @wxpnfm.bsky.social
