ROTATING OUT: SONGS LEAVING RADIO FREE CALIFORNIA

This means the music that is aging out is from Radio Free California Episode 2324. This includes music from Dua Lipa, Ukraine's Death Pill, Dream Wife, Greta Van Fleet, Extreme, Leo, Death Valley Girls, Envy of None (featuring Alex Lifeson of Rush), Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, King Krule, Death Valley Girls and much more. 

We celebrate these songs with a new show that will play on Saturdays at 11am and again at 5pm PST. We will say goodbye to the songs that are now a year on the playlist with one last broadcast, which will be repeated a couple of times during the day.

You can of course still listen to this music - my playlists are still on spotify and you can find them here. They're all searchable as well.

ALBUM SHOW NOTES

Back in 2015 the band Bodega Bay recorded an album called "Our Brand Could Be Your Life", a collection of catchy indie-rock ruminations on the slow-creep of corporate-think into youth culture. Outside of a few people in New York City, no one ever really heard the album although live tracks were performed from time to time. It's now 9 years later and the band (now known as simply "Bodega") have returned to the album, re-recorded it and unleashed it upon the public. It's pretty reminiscent of music released in the early to mid-1990's, like upgrading a low-fi album and producing it as if they were The Pixies. It's a good album and is this week's feature.

The Album Show will runs on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.

RFC 2424

For those of you who stay away from Spotify the current week's playlist will be played on Wednesdays at 2am, 6am, 10am, 2pm and 6pm PST, DJ'd by yours truly. All of the songs I feature on Radio Free California are played as part of the regular rotation. .If you want to hear the songs we've added to the station this week you can use the Spotify playlist above or you can listen to this show.

10 at 10

One last programming note: Every Saturday at 10pm and again on Sunday at 10am and 10pm we will feature our show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11 or even 12!) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST. Last week we featured a selection of songs from 2004 and for next Sunday's show we're going to feature a small selection of songs from WE'RE DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT!!! We're going to do a theme-based show this time and the theme is... well you'll have to tune in to find out! We also run the show at a "secret" time on Saturdays.

As always, you can go to https://global.citrus3.com:2020/public/radiofreecalifornia to listen to the station, and there is an imbed below. And did you know the station is available as an app? It's only for Google Play (sorry iphone users - Apples terms and conditions were too restrictive for me) but you can listen on your phone at your convenience too.



You cannot call yourself a Christian and support Trump. You just can't. Now I'm not a Christian myself but my mom was a Sunday School teacher so I did pick up a few things, and there are some things you just don't do.

On Sunday Trump held one of his rallies in one of those crazy mega-churches that seem to be more about making the pastor rich than anything else (but what do I know?) and managed to start up and bask in a chant from the congregation of "Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit!"

You know, if memory serves that one of things you just don't do; curse in church. And certainly not when people have brought their children to the service. Not if you're a person who claims to share the faith of the people you're trying to lead, and certainly not if you are a congregant of that same church. I may make fun of people for religious belief, but even I know you don't chant "Bullshit!" in a church - not even an empty one.

So why do so many Christians (the actor who plays Jack Reacher on HBO excepted) follow this man, make excuses for this man, say that he's heaven sent?

I seem to recall that as of late God sends tests, not saviours.

The only conclusion I can reach is that these people either were led or purposely stepped off of their own path, and are so far removed from it that if their actual paht/teaching/scripture should appear in front of them they wouldn't recognize it.

According to your own scripture, you're all going to hell. If you call yourself a Christian and a Trump supporter, the sad thruth is that you are not a Christian. You're a Fascist.

And never once has a Fascist gone to Heaven.

As for Trump? If he's anything worth notice at all he's the Golden Calf. I mean, Gold letters on his buildings, Gold hair, Gold bronzed skin, Gold drapes, Gold Furniture... How many fucking hints did you need?

Cheap shots:

Believe it or not, this man was a Colonel in the military. JAG corps, to be specific.

Speaking pseudonymonusly, I'm sure.

This is fine, I'm sure.

Thing is, this isn't illegal. We should really only be discussing his crimes.


How about no?

I think the biggest surprise about this whole thing is the fact that he was surprised by the comments.

Anyone who has a problem with Ms Rachel should be pitied. Obviously a horse has kicked them in the head. Or should do so.

This could have been avoided if it wasn't for the Modern Republican Party being such snowflakes.

Remember, remember, July 4th 2017.

How common is it to meet your Probation Officer over Zoom?

What kind of fuck-up would this be? EPIC.

The only thing shocking to me about this is that the number of Black Americans who believe this is this low.

Force Ghost Annikan to Asohka: Incorrect!


Says the man with an obvious Adderall addiction.

It's worth pointing out that SIX of the Supreme Court Justices are Catholic. With one more leaning that way.

I'm sure they can be green screened in later.

We can haz peace?

I pray I never meet Alex Jones. Because I'm probably going to punch him in his motherfucking throat.

Again, Force Ghost Annikan to Asohka: Incorrect!

But... but... but... they didn't call his laptop!

And because I love you, here is the video for the new Atarashii Gakkou song, which is without a doubt one of their funnier ones:
