It’s Tuesday on The AIR  and you know what that means. Today we deliver unto you yet another one-third-new, three-hour  episode of Radio Free Charleston.  You simply have to poke your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay on this page, and  listen to the cool embedded player over at the top of the right column (If you’re reading PopCult on a desktop, that is. Phone readers have to go to the website).

Yes, it’s one more hybrid edition of Radio Free Charleston at 10 AM and 10 PM Tuesday.   Unlike the last time we did this, a couple of weeks ago, this week we open with a full hour of  local music, and then we hit you with two hours of classic Radio Free Charleston International from 2017.

Our first hour, in addition to being mostly local, is also mostly Americana. I’ve been lax in covering the more rural music on RFC lately, so I figured I’d make up for it here. Hours two and three go back four-and-a-half years to an episode of RFC International that was comprised almost entirely of then-new music. So now it’s a bit of a quaint time capsule.

Check out the playlist below to see all the goodies we have in store (live links will take you to the artist’s pages where possible)…
