Upcoming events:

Fri. Dec 6th, 9pm - Midnight: Feeling Figures (More info...)

Fri. Dec 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Count It Down: The Burn It Down! Best of 2024 Special (More info...)

Listener comments!
	6:01am duke: Light it up. Burn it down.
	6:01am Sem: Good morning, Nate. This is way better than rubbing two sticks together.
	6:04am fred: Good morning Nate, duke, Sem, and all gathering around the bonfire
	6:25am Nate K.: Good morning, folks. Thanks for joining me.
	6:34am Ken From Hyde Park: Like a moth, I come seeking the flame.

	6:48am KP: Hola, Nate!
	6:58am Spoons: Memphis is shitty now....way too much crime
	7:03am Nate K.: @Spoons. I've been there a bunch. I really like it. Can't speak to the crime, though.
	7:05am dday: Nate: I hear a bit of Girl's Talk in the Britemores tune (first part of the verse)
	7:07am ultradamno: Love The Controllers
	7:07am Nate K.: @dday, I think that may be it!
	7:11am dday: Everything relates to everything else in music. I've always said there's nothing really original since the cave people banged two rocks together, just variations on themes. Not that there's anything wrong with that ;) Glad I can help. "Sounds Like" are a specialty of mine.
	7:24am Kamp Climax: good

	8:11am Nate K.: @misterpickles, anyone not from New England with even a shred of heart has to be pulling for nem Eagles.
	8:17am Sem: Thanks for the smoking spis, Nate. Catch you and the rest of the Burners 'round the radio fire next time.
	8:21am Will: Particularly scorching show today Nate! The combo of raucous rock and raging soul is just right for a Sunday morning.
	8:23am ralph and susan: thanks for playing the terraplanes -
	8:24am fred: @Nate: I'm nowhere near New England, and I'm rooting for the patriots (OK, I was an exchange student in high school for two weeks back in 1987. In Foxborough)
	8:24am Nate K.: Thanks @Will.
	8:25am Steiner in Whately: Whooo this is a good jam

	8:57am Spoons: @Nate....yeah down so many cops even the police have billboards telling visitors to turn around.
	9:05am Listener Robert: Now I'm speeding it up in my head, and oh, of course! I'm usually pretty good at picking up musical quotes, allusions, and similarities, but this one eluded me. It has such a different feel, speaking to me of sadness and endurance. I guess that happens with a lot of music if you play it andante or largo. Like the clever way they did that with "Je Ne Regrette Rien" in "inception".

Fri. Dec 6th, 9pm - Midnight: Feeling Figures (More info...)
Montreal's Feeling Figures are led by the songwriting duo of Zakary Slax and Kay Moon. The band's second LP, Everything Around You, was recently co-released by K and Perennial, and while it harkens to the sounds of indie rock's golden age, the album and the band aren't that simple to pin down, as Slax and Moon's distinctive songcraft rise above any easy genre signifier. The band dropped by WFMU on their recent East Coast swing, and with a couple of extra Retail Simps in tow (Zak also does time in that band), a good time was had. Tune in Friday, December 6 to check it out.
Fri. Dec 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Count It Down: The Burn It Down! Best of 2024 Special (More info...)
Nate the K. looks back on some of his favorite LPs, EPs, singles, reissues, and archival releases from the year that was. Tracks will be played in no particular order, because to paraphrase Michael Shelley and Hot Chocolate, respectively, they're all number one hits and everyone's a winner, baby...that's no lie.
