I'm sure I've put so many URLs in here that there's no WAY you'll ever be allowed to see it, but Facebook's all about voter suppression, right? Heh

Note: some of these are surely ineligible as you're not supposed to nominate a Pres AND Veep residing in the same state - we anxiously await all court challenges

My fellow Americans, I want YOU to VOTE!
No matter what!
No matter who!

Believe it or not, you can still cast a ballot for president without voting for Trump OR Biden!

This cycle, in the state of Minnesota, there are nine choices for President and Vice President of the United States. Here are the other seven, in the order listed at the MN Secretary of State's site, along with my best guess at their websites:
Roque "Rocky" De La Fuente and Darcy Richardson (Independence/Alliance)
https://rocky101.com/ />Howie Hawkins and Angela Walker (Green) https://howiehawkins.us/ />Kanye West and Michelle Tidball (Independent) https://kanye2020.country/ />Brock Pierce and Karla Ballard (Independent) https://www.brock.vote/ />Gloria La Riva and Leonard Peltier (Socialism and Liberation) https://www.lariva2020.org/ />Alyson Kennedy and Malcolm Jarrett (Socialist Workers) https://themilitant.com/2020/10/17/socialist-workers-party-2020-campaign-platform/ />Jo Jorgensen and Jeremy "Spike" Cohen (Libertarian) https://jo20.com/ />FYI: There's a space to write in other folks but unless they've registered as write-in votes for Minnesota, those votes aren't counted. I have no knowledge of any registered write-in candidates.

29.10.20 16:13 I did mean to ask what Halloween songs you felt didn't get enough radio play but the truth is I already have a full two hours of stuff collected for Saturday's show and any awesome requests you make will just end up bumping something - not that I'm not averse to bumping my choices for yours, but...well Halloween's a Saturday only once every five or six years, innit, it's not like I can play bumped songs on November 7. ON THE OTHER HAND.......

Hmm, another one for Nikki - although unusually, he chose a status of "Divorced" rather than "Widowed - emigrating to Los Angeles from Romaina, his username is hans.ramsey.somenumber but his profile name is "Thomas Lucas"

27.10.20 09:51 Today's Facebook bug of the day: trying to view On This Day on the laptop and it's forcing the mobile site view (?!) on me, which is almost as bad as forcing its new Facebook view on me. Why this company is unreasonably determined to have their service be completely unusable by Election Day is a mystery to me as it seems like an unwise fiscal move, but they're probably playing 4D chess or something

WEEKLY PLUG: Back to "normal" at Weekend on Demand - later today I got all kinds of new tunes including tracks from Hot Chip, Greta Van Fleet, Eivør, Felix da Housecat, Demi Lovato, Hawksley Workman, Sloan, Mark Pritchard and Johnny Manure & the Super Spreaders - and yes I'm playing a buncha requests as well.

So once again Old Dutch was like "ya know...there aren't enough tortilla chip flavours out there." These "Mexican Street Corn" Restaurant Style strips are okay, probably totally unnecessary, but if you like paprika, garlic and lime AND you like tortilla strips, go figure, we're good. These will make a good base for me to microwave some cheese that wasn't otherwise already "with Mexican seasonings" on top of it - if I do it using the cheese WITH nacho spices it'll be like nacho-ception or something and I don't think any of us want to test THOSE culinary frontiers

SUGAR FIZZ CLOSER

After weeks, even months, possibly years of us teasing you the time has finally come.
Blue Sun Soda Shop has expanded and we are over-the-top happy to announce our new location in Richfield Minnesota.
We hope you can visit and let us know what you think of the new store. It is a smaller version of Blue Sun Soda Shop but we managed to pack all the fun into a smaller space.
Open now for all your sugar love.

Part of being a music nerd is just being a nerd. As I usually do around member drive time, I went to our logging service Spinitron and pulled my "lifetime" numbers at KFAI to see where I'm at. If I compiled everything correctly and this spreadsheet don't lie, I have logged 2056 spins across on air and streaming shows going back to my first fill-in gig on "Pop Shop" back in August 2018. Now, 876 of those are from the web only show Dollar Bin, but that's still way more on air spins that I ever THOUGHT I'd do...and since I started on Saturdays in July I've already logged 394 spins - and of those, 209 were tagged "New" and 139 were tagged "Request." That's amazing! Over half new and over a third request. Here's the thing. If it's at all possible, I'd like those percentages to be even higher!

I don't think there's another station on the dial in our market that would allow so much new music and give over so much time to let the audience suggest what gets played instead of some overly-focused focus group and/or the board of I Heart Radio in cooperation with the heads of Universal/Sony/Warner - and I'm sure you would chime in and say well, that's probably why terrestrial radio isn't doing so well overall, and I'd pretty much agree with you. And I can't lie - when you seed it correctly, the Spotify algorithm is dynamite, but that can take a while and where you end up is a place where very rarely are you pushed out of what the algorithm sees as your comfort zone to get you to experience a bigger, better variety of new and interesting music - and there's so much out there.

Tomorrow I have a very special Member Drive edition of "Weekend on Demand," programmed almost entirely by listeners, many of whom were good enough to play DJ themselves and record a drop for me to play along with their requests. There's 2020 music, of course - there are some classics - there's probably the oldest thing I've played yet - and a few other surprises. But most of all this show (and this particular episode of it) is something I'm so proud to share with YOU! I hope it's something you would not only be interested in listening to but ALSO maybe come back to every Saturday at 5 after that. If Saturdays aren't good for you, we will have it archived for 14.

If you've read this far, you probably know that the underlying point of this post is that once again I am asking you for financial support of Fresh Air Radio so that opportunities like the one I've received, and so many before me, remain stable and viable for more new (and way fresher than me) voices in the years to come. If you have the means, please consider heading over to our website to make a donation - or you can do it right here on The Facebook, but there are mugs and totes over on dot org. And if you currently do not have the means, that's okay too - you can always still listen to us, and I hope you do. AND tell a friend about KFAI. And tell them to tell one of their friends too.

Found some Roundy's $1 stuffed chicken things in the freezer. I do not fear death...I fear only a day when I no longer find Roundy's product in my house

Okay, after attempting to cook them...years of having all the moisture slowly sucked out of them yielded two blocks of solid ice which cooked down into two unsliceable and inedible rocks....which I then burned. I love a challenge but...ultimately, this was a no go
12.10.20 12:53 I just dreamed it was snowing...hopefully that's just my brain's way of reminding me I need to be awake right now

Oh wow I actually own this? I wonder when I bought it! This was sort of Ian Flomer's request one week on the radio show...is that a Cheapo $4.20 price tag? <consults my web site> Oh wow, so apparently I bought it December 22, 2001, when I was still great about keeping track of that stuff... that's also Kim's birthday so it must be from a Christmas-adjacent trip I took from California to the Twin Cities to meet her (then in New York) and we stayed at her folks' place. Wild! (Yes, I'm going through the Ks for a future Dollar Bin...this one's too expensive, tho)

Sometimes you find yourself staring down a soda pop and thinking "wow...I do not care how much sugar is in this, I MUST KNOW WHAT IT TASTES LIKE." First you are assaulted by the unmistakable bouquet of candy and you think "ohhhh yeah" and you pour yourself a glass and darned if it doesn't taste EXACTLY like a Sour Patch Kid Blue. I don't think I'd want more than one glass a week but... I'm sure it will mix well with vodka, like practically every other fluid in the universe
