Greetings and salutations, fellow starchy pillow eaters. This evening's program kicks off a three hour quest to work my way up from the unanticipated bellybomb of dinner: a majestic assortment of dumplings, buns, and other delicacies from the local Asian supermarket. My steaming skills are 100% ON POINT, but my gut and brain still aren't on speaking terms, resulting in my having ingested such an enormous quantity of food this evening, that right now I want only to crawl under the turntables here in the Starlite Lounge and sleep until tomorrow afternoon. That said, I have no interest in shirking responsibility for the evening, especially with so many great new records in the bin. So stick around and hear 'em, why dontcha? Refresh this page to see the most recently played songs, and be sure to say hello in the chat.

Stand up, fight back.

Hey pitcrew, thanks for coming by tonight. We have a FULL AGENDA for this evening's show including a pile of great new records, a (smaller) pile of older ones that are pretty good too, a discussion of today's partial re-opening of WPRB's studios, and of course, some sounds for dearly departed Charlie Watts. We'll also pause to honor the late Mia Zapata of the Gits, who, in a better world, would be celebrating her 56th birthday today. Pull up a stool and grab a menu (the old kind on paper, not one of those stupid privacy-decimating QR Code jobbies that are all the rage) -- the Starlite Lounge is NOW OPEN FOR BROADCASTING BUSINESS.

Yo Pitcrew,

Verizon has done me dirty tonight and I am hanging on by a thread of an internet connection from here in Ye Olde Starlite Lounge. As of 7:15 PM, I was ready to bag on tonight's event and just rack up a repeat episode from a few weeks ago. But you know what? I feel like tempting the beast tonight. So we're gonna see exactly what kind of damage we can dish out despite the shoddy circumstances. And besides, Dana K is already filling in for me next week -- I don't wanna be a bad boyfriend and miss TWO DATES IN A ROW. (More importantly, I don't want to re-file all these records I pulled without at least trying to spin 'em for ya.) So it is with some hesitancy that I bid you welcome this evening, but nonetheless, I exist at your service in the hopes of remaining in your good graces. Thanks for hanging out tonight.

Welcome back, Wednesday night pitcrew! Last night, I joined the poor parenting hall of fame by introducing my kid to Big Trouble in Little China, which is one of my favorite bad movies of all time. So as you students of trivial cinema may have already picked up on, this evening's program may or may not be highly influenced by the spectre of Jack Burton, David Lo-Pan, Egg Shen, and the incessant rumble of the Porkchop Express. Refresh this page to see the most recently played songs, and be sure to say hello in the chat. BTiLC anecdotes or general appreciation welcome.

Yo pitcrew! This week's episode of the Freeform Pathogen comes to you LIVE from one of my least favorite places in the world: FLORIDA. AKA the Sunshine State, the tip of the Sun Belt, home to Mickey Mouse and Florida Man, where all the orange juice comes from, and perhaps least spectacularly, America's Wang and/or DeSantisLand. Whatever your preference, I am none too happy about being here but the SHOW. MUST. GO. ON. I am as thrilled as always to serve as your humble host, and promise to distribute tourist-themed t-shirts, trinkets, and baubles to each and every one of you next week.

THIS SHOW ORIGINALLY AIRED ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 14th, FROM 8-11 PM.

Whatever your preference, I am none too happy about being here but the SHOW. MUST. GO. ON. Please note that since I am broadcasting without all of the usual creature comforts of the Starlite Lounge, things may be KINDA SKETCH on the tech side tonight, so I will be relying heavily upon YOU, dear pitmates, to let me know if things run afoul. Microphone too loud/quiet? Please let me know in the listener chat. Ditto if the music is distorting or if my WiFi craps out and you start hearing that viking metal cover of Brian Eno's "Here Come the Warm Jets". Nevertheless, I am as thrilled as always to serve as your humble host, and promise to distribute tourist-themed t-shirts, trinkets, and baubles to each and every one of you next week.

Welcome back, pitcrew. Another steamy night here in the Starlite Lounge, but I'm thrilled that you've seen fit to keep us on your Wednesday night circuit. Refresh this page to see the most recently-played songs, and come find your people in the chat. Regulars are the backbone of this social scene, but newcomers are always welcome.

At some point before 11, we'll tie one on for Ringo, who turns 81 today.

Welcome back, pitcrew. The last thing anyone needs tonight is a grown-ass man on the radio telling you that it's hot as hell. But speaking as a grown-ass man who is on the radio, let me just say this: It's hot as hell. Do with that what you will, but please god do it while staying sufficiently hydrated, and while stationed astride whichever cold-air propelling device is at your immediate disposal. Refresh this page to see the most recently-played songs, and do say hello in the chat.

Also, if you're sticking around for the Descendents reference to be elaborated upon, prepare to be disappointed.
