RFC IS Sorta New This Week!

Radio Free Charleston is Partly-NEW as we dig into our archives for two 2017 episodes of RFC Volume FourTuesday on The AIR!  To listen to The AIR, you simply have to point your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay here, and  listen to the cool embedded player found elsewhere on this page.  

You can hear Radio Free Charleston Tuesdays at 10 AM and 10 PM, with boatloads of replays throughout the week.

Here’s the deal. On Sunday, I began  running The 2026 PopCult Gift Guide here in the blog. This begiins my most labor-intensive month of work on PopCult.

However, this year I also decided to abscond with my beautiful wife for a quick trip to The Bluegrass State to see some friends and do some holiday shopping.

But I didn’t want to schedule another full-repeat in this spot because I just did that three weeks ago.  The solution was to record a brand-new first hour, and then dig out two episodes of RFC Volume Four which had not yet been recycled into Volume Five.

The fun part is that I recorded this show last Friday, on the same day I cranked out NINE POSTS for PopCult.

We have a killer show anyway.  We open with a really cool collaboration from Massing’s new Remix collection, Nothing 2 Fear. We get to hear them team up with Emmalea Deal & The Hot Mess on a track remixed by Smith. Then we bring you a cut from the new album by our old friends, The Big Bad, Hexed.

The rest of our first hour includes new music from The Pistol Whippers, Vinto Van Go, Lonely Robot and more.

Then we bring you two great episodes of RFC Volume Four that haven’t been heard anywhere in over five years.

I’m tired just thinking about it.

Check out this playlist, with links to most of the artist’s page for the first hour of the show…
