Welcome to a special Marathon edition of this show dubbed "Put the Needle on The Beast" (c/o of Nate Unger who also had idea for Keili and me teaming up for this show)....Shout out to amEdeo for board oping duties. I am calling in from Ireland for this show coz I had to be over here for family matters - namely the passing of my pops, DJ Brennie, to whom this show is dedicated. That is a picture of him as a young man on lower part of today's playlist. If you tuned in to one of the remotes I did from Ireland in 2010 you might have heard him on the simulcast from Power FM.....Meanwhile back to the Marathon - this fine radio station - W F M U - needs your love and support very badly at this time - so support this station and support this show in anyway you can - Thank you! - Billyjam

It would have been really freaky if Andy Breckman mentioned you saying hi, in a non-sarcastic way. something would definitely not feel right there!

Billy - you're SO right about '93. Such a great year for Hip Hop!
  Fri. 3/8/13 7:30pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

Thanks to whoever took my pledge just now. So off my game, as I was driving through traffic while gabbing on the phone. Hahahaha! WFMU is worth acting a bit erratic over.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:30pm Danne D:

@Toots miss you guys too :) Are you guys around for any other marathon days? I have some volunteer shifts left - hope to see you guys :)
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:30pm cklequ:

Watching the goal rise at the WFMU homepage is like watching paint dry on growing grass. Somebody needs to send in huge chunks of cash soon. I just can't afford to keep pledging like this anymore. I'm tapped out.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:30pm Toots:

Great year for birthin' too! Love you li'l DJ babygirl!
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:31pm Danne D:

(let me know and I'll make sure there's treats for you as well)
  Fri. 3/8/13 7:31pm Tall Paul:

The late 80's early 90's were the best years. And for me the early 80's too when I was exposed to B-boyin when I seen the movie Breakin
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:31pm Toots:

Li'l Johnny Cash has Pneumonia & I have no car. So I'm grounded. Maybe Hoof N Mouth?
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:32pm Danne D:

@cklequ it's a team effort - folks give what they can :) encourage friends you've turned on to FMU to do so :)

Of course if I hit powerball tomorrow, the meter will probably go up faster
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:32pm Danne D:

maybe Toots - sorry to hear about Li'l Johnny Cash :(
Avatar ♥   Fri. 3/8/13 7:33pm cklequ:

@Danne D True, but it seems to be rising so slowly this year...
  Fri. 3/8/13 7:35pm Nate:

You guys sound great!
