Wed, Nov 13, 2024 - Radio Without Rules

This episode of "Music is Powerful Stuff" lives up to its ad-libbed opening with host Mike Park playing a diverse, free-form set of punk, indie, and alternative tracks, taking live requests from callers and Instagram. He shares anecdotes about the bands, expresses his appreciation for community radio, and even offers $10 to a listener who can prove they're tuning in from Santa Cruz on 101.9 FM. The show concludes, as always, with a "Weird Al" Yankovic song.
