InterTribal presents:
Polar Vortex and Spring
Good morning and welcome to your weekend!
Over this weekend the Polar Vortex made Richmond, VA a travel destination. Gusting winds of Friday heralded the forthcoming temperature drops and the activation of heat pumps everywhere. I hope this morning finds everyone warm and enjoying the rising sun. Just a reminder, Spring has officially arrived about a week and a half ago.
The selection of music navigates closer to the traditional style of InterTribal but still plays with a more contemporary sound during the middle hour. Let me know if you enjoy this musical blend.
Remember, InterTribal is pre-recorded for your listening pleasure.
I am looking for interns interested in learning radio broadcasting, audio production, and pre-recording interview and musical shows. If interested please contact me direct at [email protected] as soon as possible.
Walk in Peace,
Tall Feathers

Moonlight and Springtime
Good morning and welcome to your weekend.
Today’s music celebrates the full moon of Friday and the official arrival of Spring, Sunday morning at 11:33.
The spring and full moon have really influenced the music mix. It will be another more contemporary show.
Walk in Peace,
Tall Feathers
P.S. I am still looking for interns. If interested, please contact me at [email protected].

We Remain Strong
Good morning and welcome to your weekend.
With the new year underway and the weekend having arrived, I figured we could use relaxing music to ease us into our morning.
Glad to have you along on this journey. Lots of newer music and fresh artists I wanted to share with you.
Enjoy, Stay Healthy, and Love yourself.
Walk in Peace,

A Merry Christmas Morning
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Yuletide, Happy Kwanzaa, and Happy Hanukkah (for all who celebrated that holiday at the start of this month)
No matter how you celebrate this time of year, I wish you all good health, joy, laughter, love, happiness and peace.
This show is full of holiday music. I think this was the most music I have been able to find performed by indigenous musical artists. I hope you have a blessed morning and build beautiful memories.
Happy Holidays to you all.

Winter Solstice and Holiday Cheer
Good morning and welcome to your weekend.
Today we celebrate the Winter Solstice and anticipate the Holiday of Christmas. I can remember when I was a child I used to write greeting cards that had Yuletide written on them. I also remember asking my mother about Seasons Greetings. What it meant and why would it be used.
She explained, if you wish to give a holiday greeting to a stranger, but you did not know what holiday they celebrated it would be polite to say “seasons greetings”. “It was a sign of respect”, she said. Today people get so up in arms about people who say “Happy Holidays”. These are not statements of war against your beliefs, these statements are signs of openness and welcoming the existence of those who believe different than you.
Happy Holidays to each and everyone.
Walk in Peace,
Tall Feathers

Dreaming of a White Winter Christmas
Good morning and welcome to your weekend.
I don’t know about you but I feel as though the year is racing to its conclusion. In two weeks it will be Christmas morning, and in a week after that we will be starting the year off with InterTribal on January 1, 2022.
Once again you will find holiday songs sprinkled throughout the show.
Happy Holidays everyone.
Walk in Peace,

Day of the Dead and Dancing
Good morning and welcome to your weekend!
The last Saturday in October has finally arrived and with it, All Hallows Eve. Today’s show was created with this in mind. The music, though not Halloween specific, is focused on the spirits, ancestors, and remembering our loved ones who have journeyed on ahead of us.
In today’s fourth segment of my interview with Felipe, we learn about what he has been doing during Covid-19 lockdown. Felipe created a Podcast called; Disco Chronicles. This podcast can be found on YouTube and is filled with talented people who played various roles in the era of Disco. Click the link below for to explore the channel for yourself.

Dancing and Fun Raising
Good morning and welcome to your weekend!
WRIR is in the midst of our Fall Fund Drive and I cannot wait to get me new Tee Shirt.
With the pandemic, once again in full swing, I am unable to be in the studio at this time. This saddens me because there usually is so much activity with fans stopping in to say “hi”.
This week’s show is 16 years in the making. Felipe Rose, formally of the Village People, finally found time to sit down with Tall Feathers for an interview. They spoke about what he is doing and how he arrived to where he is now in his life. Today, InterTribal is sharing three segments of this interview with you, and will follow in two weeks with more of the interview.
