The Daily Princetonian has a terrific look behind the scenes at WPRB I was happy to contribute to.

Princeton-based freeform radio station WPRB has gained a loyal listenership for its musical experimentation and signature shows. The Daily Princetonian shadowed shows and spoke to student and community DJs about the unique freedom and culture at WPRB.

I didn't think it was appropriate to promote it prior but I was on the radio last night.

This show helped me a lot and it seemed to have a similar effect on those who joined in the chat or messaged me after.

I hope it provides something for you as well.

Get fired up, because year 36 of THE MARATHON will be here soon!

The 2024 edition of Jon Solomon’s 25-Hour Holiday Radio Show on 103.3 fm WPRB starts on Christmas Eve at 5:00 pm ET and goes steady until Christmas Day at 6:00 pm ET.

No repeats, no naps.

We’re LIVE FROM HOME for a fifth time, because there’s no going back once you’ve hosted a extended broadcast like this surrounded by your family with ample sunlight coming through numerous windows, not to mention zero heavy lifting!

All the best traditions are slated to return this year.

That means…

Snaildartha! Lindstrom’s Little Drummer Boy! Ramones-o-Clock! Sets inspired by The Misfits, New Order / Joy Division, Black Sabbath, Beastie Boys and The Fall! Joel RL Phelps! Maggie’s Reindeer Rumble! All these faves plus hours upon hours of material new for 2024. Hopefully a couple thematic ideas will happen for the first time too…

Look for a fresh line of marathon-inspired shirts on Monday, plus all the prior years’ graphics. We’ll remind you, don’t worry.

Learn more about this broadcast and how to submit pieces here!
