As independent media voices are increasingly marginalized, throttled, or coopted, WFMU remains fiercely, feistily, freeform and 100% listen-supported.

Much more than radio: a community and a precious online space free of hype, hate, and AI-slop.

Please Support WFMU: pledge.wfmu.org

“Against all odds—COVID shutdowns, FCC regulations, and the long decline of FM radio—college radio is thriving again” emwhitenoise.substack.com/p/gen-zs-col...

Gen Z's College Radio Revival

Reports say Gen Z isn't discovering new artists. But college radio stations are overflowing with new DJs. As young listeners reject algorithms for analog—the industry should pay attention.

Playing Death Stranding for the 1st time ever, it's killer. I was thinking about it the whole day, I couldnt wait to chart a course to the nearest city to take a piss.

Was thinking of replaying for Halloween, but it also works as a Christmastime game.

I wish I could find a pic of this, but PAC went dry a couple of times after losing his belt in WWE and looked absolutely unhinged. His hair was still long but it was very frazzled and puffed out, so horrifying.

If you can help me get past the torture room button mash sequence of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, then you can host my show for a week.

competition, promotional shot (1996) archive.org/details/vide...

promotional text:
big pink caps: win!
smaller but still big white: the ultimate gaming rig!!
smaller yet caps white: over $20,000.00 in prizes!
pictured here are an atari jaguar, a sega saturn, a virtual boy, a 3do, a playstation, a computer tower, keyboard and crt monitor. behind it looms a massive all black stereo system w/ two tall tower speakers and a 40 inch monitor. there is also a satellite receiver. i have no idea what the game displayed on the 40 inch screen is but it looks like it could possibly be a first person shooter set on a space ship.
