Three hours of material mostly unaired back on the program's dual April 2015 specials, including an exhumed interview Mark did on WFMU back in 1981. This time there will be no special guests from past Fall lineups, just a solid block of live soundboard and radio recordings of the band.

Goodwin will discuss the legendary 111 art studio community, sacrificed in a landlord's bid to take advantage of the expanding NJ gold coast. Goodwin's tale is a story that will sound familiar to artists in many US cities, while simultaneously revealing the home spun attitudes of New Jersey politics, and how their age old eccentricities are suffocating NJ today.
Nadine
Friday, February 9th, 3pm - 6pm
on Sophisticated Boom Boom with Sheila B.

Lead singer Nadia Hulett boasts a warm, cheerful voice and has a knack for writing snappy yet thoughtful lyrics addressing disconnection, confidence, and the shedding of old skin. Nadine will be celebrating the release of their debut album, Oh My on Father / Daughter Records with a live set and Q&A.
John Schnall’s Midnight Matinee: Crazy Stupid Guv
Saturday, February 10th, Midnight - 3am
on Inflatable Squirrel Carcass with Rich Hazelton
Midnight Matinee presents a rom-com about everyone's favorite New Jersey Governor Chris Christie: Crazy, Stupid Guv.

On WFMU, streaming on your internet, and then archived for future generations.

Saturday, February 10th, 11am - 1pm
on Michael Shelley's show

on Irwin Chusid
Otis Fodder (of the Bran Flakes and curator of the 365 Days Project) visits Irwin's show this Valentine's Day for a 3-hour musical voyage of screaming tropical birds, power-packed action hitters, long-distance love dedications, drugged-out hippie masterpieces, prog chants for dragon-fighting queens, your grand-folks singing pop songs, and a cross-section of the animal kingdom. The Bran Flakes recently released their 8th album, titled HELP ME. They will not be performing in your town anytime soon.
Tropical Trash
Sunday, February 18th, 6am - 9am
on Burn It Down! with Nate K.
Hailing from Louisville, Kentucky, Tropical Trash are the raw, nasty, yet (make no mistake) all-around swell punk-rock alter egos of former Burn It Down! guests State Champion. If the former band embody a mellow Saturday afternoon spent with a six pack, Tropical Trash represent the weirdness that happens when day devolves into night. Providing the perfect soundtrack for destroying a dear friend's living room.
Korean female folk-rock n’ pop from the 60s + 70s with guest curator Greg Satz
Friday, February 23rd, 3pm - 6pm
on Sophisticated Boom Boom with Sheila B.
Avid record collector Greg Satz swapped Western living for Seoul, South Korea, where he spends all his free time digging for Korean pop LPs. We’ll be playing a mix of Korean female folk-rock n’ pop from the 60s + 70s (and a dash of 80s!) that Greg Satz made exclusively for Sophisticated Boom Boom, and chatting with him about how he developed his Korean vinyl habit and why so many of the original records were destroyed under the political regime of the 70s.
Famous Logs in History
Sunday, March 4th, 6am - 9am
on Burn It Down! with Nate K.
With two members of the late great art punks Imaginary Icons and a former siren for the hi-lonesome outfit Small Potatoes, Brooklyn newbies Famous Logs in History bring just the sort of varied pedigree to the table we embrace around here at WFMU. The Logs, specifically, are steeped in the finest moments of assorted DIY underground movements, with maybe a touch of street punk 'tude thrown in for good measure. Their kitchen-sink approach to it all is instantly familiar while standing quite firmly on its own two feet. Catch them on the way up and then go see them at Hank's Saloon, Saturday, March 10.
