Breakfast Blend w/ Galaxy Girl & Friends presents:

Hi folks! Our Spring Fund Drive is underway, and I’m celebrating the fact that we’re halfway to Halloween! Ok, we’re 193 days away to be exact. So I’d like to kick Thursday off by raising $193 during the Blend. Can we do it????

No playlists available.

It started when I heard “The Lotus Land Show” on WRIR. I had finally found a radio station that appealed to my diverse musical interests. A station with DJs bold enough to play Peruvian exotica from Yma Sumac, followed by pop from local band Hot Lava, and then throwing in a little Black Sabbath for good measure. It was magical. And I knew I had to be part of it. From “The All-Nighter” to “Galaxy Girl” to “The Thursday Breakfast Blend”, since 2008 I’ve volunteered with WRIR to help bring you musical variety that’s different from what you can find everywhere else on the dial. Please show your support for WRIR during this fund drive. The office phone lines open a little later, but you can give online anytime at www.wrir.org. Thanks, and enjoy the show!
