Friend Jess Gale begins her birthday celebration at WAYO as my Special Guest DJ! Jess describes her playlist as . . . "an eclectic selection of mostly contemporary soul, folk, r&b and indie rock. These are songs that I have both enjoyed on repeat and that have also carried me through the last year or so of big life changes and transitions."
Last episode of 2023 inspired by Santa Claus - "he sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake . . ." - songs about watching, being watched, obsession, voyeurism, stalking, spying, surveillance, nosy neighbors, peeping toms, etc.

For #100 I mined my first 34 episodes of Ether Transmissions - the Ken Nordine Colors Series. The first 34 episodes each begin with a song from Ken Nordine's 1966 album Colors. Each color was followed by a theme. The first episode aired live on WAYO on December 21, 2021 and it was called White (Winter Solstice).
