Dog Germs / PND (punk’s not dead) presents:
Dog Germs Christmas Eve 12/24/24 Edition
As promised, I will be doing a Christmas theme for tonight’s show…mostly. We’ll start off the night with a tribute to Ruth McArdle, aka Lady Galore, aka Cherrie Blue, who recently passed away. If you’ve ever heard the Lords Of Acid album Voodoo-U, then you’ve heard her sing. She was also a solo artist and also a member of the Thrill Kill Kult‘s Bomb Gang Girlz at one point.
Thanks for listening and Happy Holidays! I’ll be back here New Year’s Eve to send 2024 away and help bring in 2025!

Breakfast Blend w/ Galaxy Girl & Friends presents:
Galaxy Girl – 20211223 – Merry Festive Humbug
Join me this morning as I try to force some festivity into my soul.
There are radio stations in town that dedicate weeks (if not months) to playing holiday music classics.
But that’s not what I’m here for. There will be no Mariah on this show. No Bing. No Darlene Love. Not even Run D.M.C, as much as I love them.
Today I’m bringing you the songs that are classics in my heart: Jimmy Jamz and Xtopher, Parry Gripp, The Penguins, Froggy Fresh, Dave Watkins, Singing Dogs, El Vez, Lee Harris & Country Sunshine, AND MUCH MORE! Thanks for listening and have a holly jolly good Thursday!
