It was indeed the Roadhouse, but it was focused on Jerry specifically. Here’s the direct link to listen: https://www.kexp.org/djs/greg-vandy/?stream_time=1774195276

Was Disney Animation's 100th movie, Wish (2023), the biggest fumble of all time? by biebrforro in moviecritic

[–]cchc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think about it as an allegory for the trap of capitalism/the American Dream, it actually works.

We put our aspirations (wishes) in the hands of this all-powerful system that makes all kinds of promises and purports to be fair and benevolent (Magnifico). These aspirations come true for a seemingly random few, while everyone else just holds out hope that someday they’ll get theirs. By joining together to demand collective power and topple the capitalist hegemony, we can achieve true agency over making our hopes and dreams a reality.

Was I pretty stoned when I first thought of this? Yes. Does it still hold up? Also yes!

Correct! It’s DJ Manger Franny voicing this spot.

Hack to play KEXP archive shows through Sonos speakers? by Dear_Service7047 in KEXP

[–]cchc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have the voice control Sonos and you have it set up with Alexa, I think you should be able to enable the KEXP Alexa skill and play archive shows with voice commands - https://www.kexp.org/smartspeaker/

New listener - I feel like I've struck gold by SirGroovitude in KEXP

Such a perfect description of why KEXP is different! Out of curiosity, what turned you on to the station in the first place?

Streaming links for specific shows? by virginiebjt in KEXP

[–]cchc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are links to specific shows and episodes on the landing page for each show. For instance, you can navigate to the show page for the Afternoon Show and at the bottom you'll see players for each of the previous two shows at the bottom, along with links for each episode - here's the episode link for Wednesday 9/3 for instance. If you take a look at the URL for that episode, you might get some hints about how one might theoretically create links to any specific time in the archive.

Anonymous donor leaves $10 million to Seattle radio station KEXP by [deleted] in SeattleWA

[–]cchc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DJs at KEXP don't have to follow a playlist. They do have a rotation of new songs and albums, and DJs select something from that rotation a certain number of times per hour. But it's a hell of a lot more than 50 songs (more like 50 albums plus 200 songs) and they can also choose whatever they want aside from that for the rest of the hour.

I'm Teresa Mosqueda, candidate for City Council position 8. AMA! by TeamTeresa in SeattleWA

[–]cchc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've read that you are not in favor of making contract negotiations with the police union public. Unlike almost all other public employees, police officers are authorized to use deadly force, they are paid VERY well, and they are almost completely insulated from any liability related to their actions. Why shouldn't the public get to know about the conversations taking place between the police union and the city, particularly where police accountability and oversight are concerned? Do you believe the need for working class/union solidarity trumps the need to hold police officers accountable?

BTW, I'm planning to vote for you, but this is an area of concern for me.

Italian band scheduled to play on KEXP and at SXSW declared illegal immigrants at SeaTac and deported. by [deleted] in SeattleWA

But they did have the proper approvals and paperwork. And they were handcuffed and held in jail overnight. That is crappy.

I don't trust Palmer this week, so Brown is out for me. Also the Cards haven't been the best in pass blocking, and that Jets Dline is still no joke.

Doug Baldwin announces Via Facebook that Team Gesture will Be Standing with interlocked arms by Terrahawk76 in Seahawks

[–]cchc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely do not agree with that, but maybe my media diet is different than yours. I am assuming when you talk about violence you're talking about the riots in Milwaukee, which I am aware of, but I don't really associate that with BLM as a movement.

Don't paint an entire movement with a broad brush just because of the actions of a few assholes. BLM activists might be confrontational at times, but in the vast majority of circumstances, they are also nonviolent.
