WOODY RADIO DJ MIKE SHOW #71, 8/27/2019

I just had a weird, fun idea, but I should have started it about 71 episodes ago. It came to me because I took a look at this week’s playlist, and noticed that there were 56 tracks on this show, and that this happened to be episode #71 of my show. So here’s the thought–I should play the amount of tracks equivalent to the episode number. Meaning that for show #1, play one song. Show #2: play two songs. That would probably have been really hard to schedule, however, because the first show would have been about 4 minutes long–and probably wouldn’t have had much of a following. A show like this week’s, however, would have run quite a bit longer than my now semi-customary two sets of overtime. And imagine what happens when I get to show #1000–which will happen someday. Might take three full days to do that show, and I might annoy people–you, the other Woody Radio DJs, and even me.

So all that was pretty silly, but it does make me realize just how much music we are allowed to pack into each show here at Woody Radio. 56 tracks of excellent music, in one 3 hour 30 minute show, is kind of astounding. But we have no commercial or station breaks, and I don’t ever have to fade down any tracks. So I just keep going. I try to represent a wide variety of music from across the rock ‘n’ roll spectrum on my shows.

When I started here at Woody Radio back in November, 2017, I was given a 3 hour time slot. However–I’m so poor at planning my time, that I’ve ended up going into overtime nearly every single week. And not just a single set of overtime, but double overtime, folks! Check it out–when you see my show running about 3 hours and 30 minutes, that means that I’ve failed as a radio producer. Well, failed to stop playing music at 11:00 p.m. Pacific, that is. I hope you don’t mind. That usually means an extra 7 or 8 songs, late at night, to give you a proper sendoff.

All that said, give a listen for an example of what this all sounds like. And enjoy!
