Halftime At The Apocalypse

He's written so many poignant, beautiful songs. This may be the most eloquent.

'll be stepping back in to Armory Park Studio 1A tonight for Halftime at the Apocalypse. I'm (once again) very grateful to Maryann Beerling and Kevin Mathews for giving me the space and time to recover from heartbreak! You two are the best! Also big thanks to the entire KXCI community for all the support while navigating the past three months! Whew!
Airing from 8 to 10 PM, Arizona Time...

WE ARE HERE

We are here essentially to risk ourselves in the world. We are a form of invitation to others and to otherness, we are meant to hazard ourselves for the right thing, for the right woman or the right man, for a son or a daughter, for the right work or for a gift given against all the odds. And in all this continual risking the most profound courage may be found in the greatest risk and the greatest vulnerability of all, the simple willingness to allow ourselves to be happy along the way…

Reaching out to the hive. I've been putting together rain shows for heaps and gobs of years with the intention of calling in a robust monsoon! What are some of your go to rain songs? The next show is just about complete and this is a request for requests over the next few weeks!!

Back in early 1986 at the behest of a friend who was a DJ at local station KOTR (may it rest in peace!) in Cambria, California, I wandered into the station on a Saturday afternoon at about 4:45 to talk to the station manager about picking up the show.
The station manager , who was a consummate stoner, took me into the studio pointed to the turntables, pointed to the cart machine, ( back in those days all of the ads psa's we're on 8-track cartridges. Oh, and there were no compact discs yet so it was all vinyl!)
Then he looked at the clock, it was 4:50 p.m., looked at me and said, " I've got an open hour at 5 p.m. till 6 if you want to take it."
Thus began the realization of a lifelong dream to be a DJ on the radio!
After moving to Arizona in 1988 and a year later finding myself in Tucson, where I'd heard about this station KXCI Community RadioKXCI, I finally figured out that there was a North 4th Avenue and a South 4th Avenue and where the line of demarcation existed. I called Carol Anderson who was the program director at the time , told her about my experience at KOTR and was invited over to meet her and do an hour on the spot, again!
I was just shy of 32 years old.
Fast forward to 2021, 32 years later, and I'm still doing this stuff! Admittedly the last year has been quite challenging after doing nothing but live radio since 1986 (with a year break in 1988) and it's still fun!
I've been doing this longer then I've been doing anything else, ( except for breathing!)
Tonight's halftime show, after the obligatory Beatles song begins the segment, I will be playing artists covering other artists.
Thanks for listening all these years, thank you for supporting community radio and thanks to KXCI for putting up with me, and on we go into whatever is next!
The pictures were taken at the studios of kotr in 1988 right before I moved Arizona. I am with my friend and partner in crime who encouraged me to come to the station and meet Ray, the stoner station GM, Drew Ross!
Tally ho!
