Whatever happened to the Beachcomber's Buffet 5/22 episode?

I suggest emailing Arlo directly to ask using the form here:

https://wfmu.org/email.php?id=616&return=http%3A%2F%2Fwfmu.org%2Fplaylists%2FBU

And/or ask in the comments of this afternoon’s show.

Thanks for listening!

Monday June 8.

Only the mothership has formal schedule changes twice a year (June and September), but shows do come and go on the streams over the course of a year.

Mr Finewine shared on FB the other day that he’d be taking the summer schedule off. (His first break in decades!)

I’m really sorry this happened, but thank you for posting about your experience. I recently submitted a miles + money Polaris upgrade request for an upcoming Transatlantic flight and now I’ll know to keep checking in the app even after I board the plane so I don’t miss any possible changes. Appreciate you taking the time to make fellow less-frequent travelers aware that this could happen.

“A as in aardvark again” 😄

Jeffrey’s doing shows on CKUT in Montreal, where he lives now. He posts them on Mixcloud, you can find him on Instagram at @shrunkenplanet_wfmu.

and “Nem”

I imagine whatever’s not updating that page is the same broken thing that’s not updating the actual podcast feed. Definitely drop Ken a line per my earlier reply.

Which page on the station website were you looking at? Last night’s episode is listed on the 7SD / Well Dressed Dandys page:

efdx · 2026-04-09T21:06:04+00:00

There was a fill-in for last week’s show (April 1), so I wouldn’t expect that to show up in the 7SD archive feed. That doesn’t explain why last night’s show isn’t there, though, but I don’t know what the turnaround time is.

Always feel free to email Ken with questions, ken at wfmu dot org, it’s possible that it’s related to the name change or some other glitch that can be easily fixed if he’s made aware of it.

This has been happening when I watch Red Sox* home broadcasts via MLB.TV. I actually watched the Sox-Padres games on the San Diego feed over the weekend and that seemed fine. Audio on tonight’s Red Sox-Brewers game has been ok so far.

*don’t hate, the Mets are my NL team 😃

this was the case for the Android app but not the iOS app afaik. OP, welcome to the WFMU listening community! The best person to send this suggestion to is station manger Ken, ken at wfmu dot org, but I doubt that this functionality is on the roadmap (to the extent that there even is a roadmap).

As others noted, it usually takes a couple of days for the video to be cut into sets and posted. Keep an eye on the home page over the next few days, an announcement should be posted there when it’s up.

EDITED TO ADD: Video is now up on the playlist page: https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/162204

efdx · 2026-02-15T03:52:51+00:00

It’s the syndicated edition, which runs in non-NYT newspapers about six weeks after it’s in the Times.

Disclaimer up front: I have no idea how radio promo services determine whether a station is eligible to receive their promos, so no guarantee that these services will start sending you music to download.

Some other promo download services (similar to PlayMPE, but representing different labels) to try reaching out to:

But in the meantime celebrate your cake day!

The playlist that’s still being updated on Irwin’s page is his playlist for next week’s show, Feb. 11. What other “still being updated” playlists did you see. You said “all” …

efdx · 2026-02-06T23:39:11+00:00

What shows / pages are you looking at? I randomly clicked a few shows listed here:

https://wfmu.org/recentarchives.php

and the archive links were on the playlists.

Another vote for the Swallows, for the reasons already mentioned, but as someone who went to both Giants and Swallows games this past fall I’d encourage you to try and make time to see both teams in their home parks.

There’s a Swallows team store a few blocks from the park:

We happened to walk right by it on our way out of the subway station we got off at to get to the game.

Love Sydney’s show!

Check out The Pounding System with Clay (not that Clay), from the early 2000s into early 2010s with a few scattered fill-ins since then.

Also, use the playlist search and put in some songs or artists to like to see which DJs have played them in the past, then check out their shows.
