My final two shows of 2024 are now archived online. What a year it's been! Among other things, I moved to Connecticut, defended my PhD, made my debut as Doctor Ahab, and am starting my next stage in life as an assistant professor of history at Wesleyan.

Just wanted to hop on here to wish you all a very happy new year and bright 2025. Also, I'll be filling in a few shows at WPRB 103.3 FM in the next few weeks:

Fri, Jan 3, 3-5pm, filling in for Jen
Tues, Jan 7, 3-5pm, filling in for Lina - ANATOLIAN HOUR

Happy new year!!!!

Hey friends, I know I don’t post as much on Facebook compared to Instagram, but I wanted to share that Monday the 27th is my last official episode of Desert Cruising at WPRB. I’m taking the rest of the year off to finish my dissertation (I’ll still sub shows now and then) before my new job as an assistant professor at Wesleyan University. Desert Cruising will continue, just in a new form 🙂 (hopefully at WESU fm!)

Love you all, it’s been a journey. Tune in at 103.3fm or listen.wprb.com tomorrow from 10am

It's the last few days of WPRB 103.3 FM's spring membership drive, let's ring it in strong!

Follow the smoke to the riff-filled land this Thursday from 11pm-1am with DJ Flex Luthor and Captain Ahab! We'll be listening to heavy stoner metal tunes and extolling the virtues of WPRB 103.3 FM as we are in the middle of our spring donor drive! This is the time of the year when we reach out to the community and ask for your support to continue delivering the free-form eclectic radio experience you know and love. Please consider going to pledge.wprb.com and pledging your support today!
