Post-punk, literally "after punk", a genre of music you might have missed between the first punk explosion and the advent of MTV. This program samples some of the bands that fit that sound and that era.

Bee Shuman and David Holm of the band Bee Humana are the guests this week. We hear a few songs that influenced Bee as a songwriter and also hear a couple tracks from Bee Humana's EP. Plus there's the usual roundup of recent pop/rock/singer-songwriter releases.

New radio mix just dropped. Starts out loud and uptempo and then gets quiet. Sorta like my days anymore. #indierock #glam #singersongwriter
Thanks to @paulnini.bsky.social for the rebranding. In the coming weeks, I'm going to start banging on the doors of other community/public radio stations across the country to ask them to pick up my show via @prx.org and Pacifica. And it'll always be on @wcrsfm.org and @mixcloud.bsky.social
You know, when you think about it, practically every symphony orchestra is a cover band, and nobody busts their chops about it.

I got @wcrsfm.org , on @prx.org , the public radio exchange. I promptly published my latest radio show. If you're in the USA and have a local public station that needs some updating, bug them to add The Ear Opener. #communityradio #publicradio

I’m a mile away and was wondering what all the dang sirens were about.
I still like making radio. Maybe I'll see you this weekend?
Pat previews the Nervosas show, which you best attend. Also Daikaijiu, Golomb, Automatic, and a half-hour of Scottish post-punk.

Pat previews this Saturday's Blockout Bash in Old North Columbus with Blockout organizers Joel Chastain and Bryan Kossmann. Several bands playing the fest are featured. Listen on demand below or tune in tonight at 8 p.m.
Pat says: New music from Gustaf, DANA, The Laughing Chimes, Wombo, Sorry, and Giant Day. And then 40 minutes of shaking a 7-disc various artists comp of Manchester bands from 1977-1993 to see what I haven't heard yet.
Never underestimate my levels of confusion & not giving a fuck.
I posted this by mistake to WCRS's account. But you get the idea. Music for your Tuesday evening. Gather the family around the wireless.
Netherlands - 42 popular votes? Dissed. Malta only got 8? What the hell is wrong with you people? Denmark completely slighted with 2 popular votes. Switzerland 0? If next year there’s no acts like Tommy Cash or KAJ, I probably won’t sit for it. But I’m a couch potato, so I probably will. (3/3)
Israel won the popular vote? Politics aside, really? That was in no way the best song.
My opinion of the qualifiers softened a bit in the final, and my list, in no order, was: Malta, Luxembourg, Estonia, Spain, Latvia, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden. (2/3)
TL/DR: Eurovision is shit and I should stop investing any time and emotion into it.
Jury voting insures that quirky/tongue-in-cheek acts don't win the contest, but popular vote results aren't much better. #eurovision2025 (1/3)
Finally realizing after watching this for the third year that schmaltzy would-be broadway show stoppers is what they vote for.
Glad Malta and Luxembourg made it. I was hoping for Ireland and I liked Australia's song, but their stage show was basically a magic act. Everything else, again, was sucksville. #eurovision2025
Estonia and Sweden advance, so all is right with the world. I also like Spain. The rest of the first-round qualifiers? M'eh.

Super helpful, @embroodery.bsky.social Thank you!
Folks in bands, organizations, etc, who regularly screen T-shirts. Where do you get your shirts? If you get 100 shirts, how many of them are S, M, L, XL, 2XL, etc.? Thank you.

The cover of Tim Mohr's book Burning Down The Haus: Punk Rock, Revolution, and the Fall of the Berlin Wall.
Punk in East Germany contributed to the fall of the Berlin Wall. An important read now in 2025 U.S.A. The repeated refrain throughout the book is "Don't die in the waiting room of the future." Sadly we just lost its author Tim Mohr, to pancreatic cancer. #punk #eastgermany #berlin
