[Thread] So, it took having to do a search on the website, but I managed to find the #BlackHistoryMonth audio archives on the #WMPG website. Hopefully, the ones from 2025 will also be posted on their website (and the ones already posted won't disappear...).

[Thread] So, I noticed that #WMPG hasn't made a big deal about #BlackHistoryMonth features like they have in the past. However, #OnTheAir, they have mentioned it a lot! I've managed to catch a few of the Black History month-themed shows, and will be posting set lists and links to the audio archives (which will be available for 5 weeks after airdate). Screenshot is from a past Black History Month web page...

So, #WMPG seems to have resolved its website issues (a CAPTCHA trojan), so I feel good about sharing their links again.

This is the show where I heard a lot of revolutionary punk rock (as well as #MoonWalker). This was NOT the usual Blues show that usually is scheduled for that time slot!
