Back on the College Radio Airwaves

It felt good returning to the airwaves of WUSB, Stony Brook, last Wednesday. I was reunited with my old timeslot, which was called Recess. The reason for the name was because during that stretch of time (12:45-2:20 PM Wednesdays), the Stony Brook University campus did not hold any classes for undergraduate students. It was a breif “recess” for the entire student body, allowing them to pursue extracurricular activities or just relax in one of the lounges. And of course, they could also come up to the WUSB studios to hang out with the DJ, play some music and even chat over the air about whatever was on their mind (within FCC guidelines, of course!)

Since last Wednesday was the day before the Thanksgiving holiday, there were no students on campus, so none came up to visit. But that’s alright, I had plenty of great music to keep me going. Plus, I was uber excited to be on the air and would not shut up whenever I had a chance to speak on the main mic. Nothing’s really changed since I left :).

Below is my playlist for the show. I was rocking all the college radio classics along with some new jamz on the CR1 rack.

Please feel free to share any music recommendations you may have in the comments. I’d love to hear them!
