Posted: 01/27/03 - 10:40 Post subject: Cool Local Station
Fordham University has a public radio station that is really cool (Check it out via streaming audio). It plays a real eclectic mix of music. I run right past the half completed radio tower weekly.
The Bronx Botanical garden, which is across the street has been blocking the construction for many years. I think they are being pettty (We go to the BBG a few times a year) saying that it ruins the aesthetics.

I was hoping that one was listed in my itunes stuff, but it isn't. I'll have to settle with what I can get without getting in trouble here at work.

I listen to Rowan University's public radio - they play the music that matters

Sometimes college stations seem to force themselves to be eclectic
In college our station would run the gamut from playing
Hitler speeches, Oingo Boingo, something classical, some bluegrass, something from Laurie Anderson then a top 40 hit in a matter of 30 minutes depending on the length of the Hitler speech and the Laurie Anderson song.

I hope they gave equal time by playing some Kleszmer music!
I don't think I've come across that station and I spend a lot of time at that end of the dial. will have to look for it.
