Our radio rocks.
Here's a funny fact for you: The Curmudgeon doesn't have a radio.
I pretty much despise the radio - why would I want to be TOLD what to listen to? Why should I have to put up with listening to what's on a commercial setlist? New music is far easier to find on any of the 1000 music channels out there and through reading the likes of NME and actually going to see bands.
That said, The Curmudgeon wasted no time in accepting your friend and mine, loyal Dweller Invisible Wolfman's offer to join him on his radio show. Hey, if people are going to listen - may as well have them listen to The Curmudgeon.
So - wanna hear it? 'Course you do - although you may well question yourself after listening to it. Maybe I'm too much of a self critic but, well, it WAS my first time and it IS basically me speaking into a microphone into the computer and then e-mailing it to Wolfman. So don't expect Howard Stern, OK? And aplogies if you can't understand my accent, but I did try and speak as clearly as possible.
Anyway, the actual site to listen to it is here
And here's the times for you Americans first..
Here's what the times would be in the eastern time zone (i.e New York):
Monday - 1pm
Wednsday - 3am
Sunday - 7am
Here's the Midwest/Central time zone (i.e Iowa):
Monday - 12pm
Wednsday - 2am
Sunday - 6am
Mountain time Zone (i.e Montana):
Monday - 11am
Wednsday - 1am
Sunday - 5am
and finally the western time zone (i.e. California):
Monday - 10am
Wednsday - 12am
Sunday - 4am
And then for us earthlings in the UK..
Monday - 6pm
Wednsday - 8am
Sunday - 12pm
Oh, and one more thing - Wolfman lives in Finland, so it's a Finnish radio station. So if you tune in earlier and hear crazy foreign languages - that's why. You know, all in all it's just a bit of fun and, ideally, another way to get people to maybe come to the site.
Anyway, hope you enjoy!

LOL, talk about good timing. I just logged in here five minutes before this started.
I managed to catch most of the show. Wolfman has a smooth, easy-listening vibe going on, and its a nice change from the usual DJ's who feel they have to bellow at you to keep your attention.
And Curmudgeon - what can I say? I really had to concentrate on the radio to hear what you were saying because it was pretty quiet, but I think the delivery (and the material) were bang on. A good job all round!
That statement about being told what to listen to is one I've made so many times it's silly. All I typically get in response is a quizzical look as though music outside of pop radio is some sort of mythical creature that nobody has believed in for centuries.
And as for the radio show; sounds like fun. I'll be off work tomorrow night so I'll try to catch y'all then.
