ENCINO ROYALE

Sometimes you cast your fate to the wind...

...and it just blows.

Survival of the Fattest. Laissez le bon temps rouler, Cher.

Tonight's prime directive includes: space exploration from The Silver Apples & Franconaut, Bruno Leys, splashing down with earthly tunes by Cymande, The Staple Singers & the Jiu Jitsu Calypso. Once on terra firma, we head East for Japanese Ye-Ye, & the Phantom Hitchhiker will join us on a special set of "Cadillac" songs! We gave you the teasin' and plenty of reasons, so tune on in for your evenin's pleasin!

Dueling monkeys & a Kink-y comparison with a side of onions.

Tonight your destiny lies with Bob.

As James Bond rows his boat to Thailand, we urge you to put on your shoes, step on down and walk in the sand: if you try to catch a girl, you may just end up with a whole lotta woman.

The Monkey Donkey Show.

We are so happy to put 2020 out on the curb with the rest of the garbage for the toilet bears & trash pandas to feast upon.

Welcome to 2020.1 everyone!

To usher in the Year of Damballah in the most legal way possible, we will be playing a selection of songs that honor the number 21, the legal age for doing the camel walk. Wade in the water, walk on the wild side, or walk don't run, but what some ever you do, keep on moving!

Our annual "Year In Review." Before we blindfold this grueling year, give it one last cigarette, & send it to the firing squad, we'll play new (vintage) acquisitions, actual *new* 2020 releases, & honor the fallen music heroes (Toots Hibbert, Spencer Davis, Candido, Bill Withers, Betty Wright, & Morricone, just to name a few). Expect Middle eastern electronics, a ghostly groover from Duke Pearson, a well dressed garage grumbler, Funky breaks, & 007 double-takes! There's still time to end this crummy year on a high note!

Tonight we uphold a seasonal Molotov tradition when we yule your log, egg your nog, and revoke our annual Sanity Claus! Yes, the Soulstice of Soul is here to raise and imbibe some spirits while putting aside the stuffing and doing the mashed potato. With this episode, we attempt to waylay the anxiety, the tension and the melancholy that can come with the holidays - especially in this most crappiest of years. How about letting James Brown and Marvin Gaye serenade your soul and turn your kitchen into a dance floor? With two hours of JB and MG, consider your stockings stuffed!

Meanwhile at the Safe House...

Special Agent Lotus corrects her record on predicative adjectives vs. postpositive adjectives AKA postnominal adjectives, while Cyrano & Señor Amor battle it out for Bocci Ball supremacy in the sub-basement.

Tonight we are premiering "Where Wez Live," the first episode of our 4-part mini series, THE WORLD IS IN A TANGLE, a program focused on Blues & Gospel.

Duke, one of Molotov's favorite guest selectors, sent prime picks from his collection to us via the US Post, then added long distance color commentary and history. It's almost 3 hours long, and worth every penny!

We really hope our endeavor of "Dealing In Healing" will help to boost your spirits and bolster your resolve. Among Duke's fascinating and curated sets are songs about being lonely, going crazy, trying one's soul, booze, and trains (to take us all away).

We spent a lot of time getting this one together, and hope this untangles your world, even if just for a few hours.

Remembering McCoy Tyner.

Super Duper Tuesday!

Live performance by Molotov Cocktail favorite Zander Schloss!

Survival of the Fattest: Plus Size Edition. (Cyrano jumps the gun on our Special Mardi Gras show by one week. But, you know, the locals eat their King Cakes early because next week is over run with tourists).

Showing love to our single listeners by skipping the LOVE COUNT theme show this year. The gamut of human emotions will be expressed instead without any major accounting.

The Earl of Echo Park AKA Julien Nitzberg transports us to the land of For the Love of a Glove.
