Hey, do you remember that kid you picked on in high school? Well, we gave him a radio show…. 14 years ago. Tune in this Friday at 9 p.m. for The Mockster’s 14th anniversary edition of “Viva Le Mock.” At midnight, he’ll be having a special “14th Anniversary Mock” (whatever that means…)!
Find more info on his show and old playlists here: www.wrct.org/show/32
As you lounge under your cabana, sipping on a cold drink with an umbrella hanging out at an awkward angle, peering at some distant waves through amber-tinted sunglasses, thinking about how great the lack of serious obligation is (at least for a while), you can’t help but notice that something missing. After some careful thought, you sit up, roll over, and deftly smack your radio. Music comes out. It is quite good. Removing your sunglasses, you squint at the dial on the radio and notice it is tuned to 88.3. Yes, you get reception all the way at the beach.
You call the station and demand “What is this I’m listening to?” The DJ responds, “Why, WRCT’s Summer Schedule, of course!” (presumably followed by the name of some song).
That’s right, all your favorite shows are right there where you left them, and some of your new favorites (they’re there, I made sure) are there as well.
Aren’t you glad WRCT is there to complete your summer? No need to thank us; we know you’d do the same.

May 17 — Music from artists with birthdays in May will be featured.
May 24 — No show on the 24th.
May 31 — Harry Smith’s birthday is May 29. We’ll play songs from the Anthology of American Folk Music and other tunes related to Harry.
June 7 — We will feature music from the English folk revival of the 1960s and 1970s.
June 14 — Music from artists with birthdays in June will be featured.
Please note that the last three shows are contingent on my agent successfully negotiating a slot for me on the WRCT Summer Schedule! We will update this post if necessary.
