You know that thing where everything is terrible, but then Dreams by The Cranberries comes on and suddenly everything is fine? That's Dopamine Dupe! It's the songs that bring you back from the brink // the SSRI of radio shows // your musical alternative to a labotomy. No genre, no gender, no thoughts, just vibes. Tune in, besties!
In an extra special episode only an unemployed person could make, DJ She/They has toiled (toiled!!!) over an unbroken chain of tasty jams that each connect to the next. This ones for you, Kevin Bacon <3

HAPPY FREAKIN' NEW YEAR, DUPERS! A veritable War of the Worlds situation returns to the airwaves with a guess-the-theme hour so groan-inducing even DJ She/They briefly forgot it 5 minutes into the show. Cheers to a gorgeously silly new year of dopamine-rich tunage way out right here!

Do you love Christmas music, fun factoids, and unnecessary rules? Well, have I got the episode for you! Last week we may have been blue, but tonight we're dialing the Christmas spirit up to 11. On a very merry Dopamine Dupe Drafts battle, amidst discussions of Rochester's undeniable holiday influence, the confluence of kitsch & social commentary, and deep regret over self-imposed contest parameters, DJ Dad is back in the studio to see if his playlist of original Xmas jams can take down the current reigning champ.
Hot take: maybe...perhaps...the Grinch was on to something. Christmas kinda sucks, right?? On this holly jolly special episode of Dopamine Dupe, DJ She/They taps into her SadGirl (tm) roots, and we trade in the SSRIs for an hour of Phoebe, Merle, Sufjan, and straight-up kvetching about the happiest time of the year. Ditch the compulsive merriment, tap into your inner Scrooge, and cozy up for a moody hour of Christmas catharsis!
LEAVE WOMEN ALONE! PART DEUX! They're still sick of your s***, and you should continue to leave 'em alone. That's it. That's the whole show.

Happy Tofurkey Day, besties! On a special family collab episode of Dopamine Dupe, DJ She/They dusts off a stack of records with little-bro-of-the-show, DJ Cat Dad, as the two spin songs about going & leaving home. So pass that damn cranberry sauce and get ready to thrash to some Tracy Chapman, as the good lord intended.

Once a fiscal quarter, DJ She/They likes to invite DJ Lil P to the studio to get absolutely trounced in a head-to-head battle of themed playlists, and this week, she intends to beat him at his own specialty, Cover Songs! Will she come out on top? Will Tony cyber bully Evan to the point of no return? Was Girls Just Want To Have Fun originally an incel anthem???

On this hella dope & yolo fundraiser-edition of Dopamine Dupe, we're setting our clocks back 10 years and reliving the emotional turmoil that was 2013! DJ She/They is joined in studio once again by the incomparable Mommy City, as the two wax nostalgic about being of drinking age at PXY's Summer Jam, argue about when Vampire Weekend came to Rochester, and subject the listening audience to Hot Chelle Rae against their will. And if that doesn't prove public radio is an invaluable public service, idk what will!!
DJ She/They has never once been described as chill, but at least knows a thing or two about chills. The Great Pumpkin is on his way, and it's time to get the vibes right with a chill & cozy lil creepy cocktail porrrty.
