Magic Whistle Radio Hour 000

I've decided to put this on hiatus for a while. So many other projects. I also have a book I'm almost finished with. I'd be done by now if there weren't a virus that let me go someplace with good light to draw. I'm more of a comics and film geek than music geek anyway. Don't worry, I'll do more eventually. I still have about a year's worth of songs I haven't put up yet. It started to be like doing homework and sometimes I'd forget. Five years is a pretty good run. There's still the archives. 304 hours worth of stuff here if you check those out by scrolling past the links on the right. That's two weeks and a almost a day.

In the meantime, check out THIS FILM HAS BEEN RATED ECCH, another blog I started a couple months ago which is an A-Z guide featuring movie and TV parodies from MAD, Cracked, Crazy, Sick, and those kind of magazines.

Magic Whistle Radio Hour 304

Things I've collected over the years or acquired on mixtapes and comps or gathered from the internet or the library or my parents' attic. The different sources are the reason for the volume disparity. I make no claims to "discovering" or "owning" anything. Probably neither do you. It's whatever I feel like playing that week. Every Saturday. No repeats. Things that may or may not be familiar. Who knows? The time's next to each song in case you don't like something or it's icky or if you don't want your kids to hear it. Don't let offense at one song cloud your impression of the curation as a whole. Past weeks here too. Just type "Audio" in the search engine. Or if you're too lazy to press a button more than once, here's everything up to December 2019. You don't get the all playlists, though. You can right-click this if you want to save a zip file of this one (containing an mp3 of the file) for later. Here what information I was able to find:
