Reprising Three Shows While Away from the Studio

Three Gumbo YaYa shows from the past will be airing on KAOS in the next weeks so I’m creating this page so listeners can be easily directed to the corresponding show webpage.

If you’re listening locally, I hope you are continuing to tune in to my current show, the Thursday Happy Hour which airs from 4 to 6 p.m. (PST) It’s a live show where I focus on a wide range of uptempo songs AND I take requests. I intentionally do not record this show. It’s meant to be enjoyed live. . . except when I can’t do it live.

So for the next three weeks I’m dusting off some of my later Gumbo YaYa shows and putting them in that slot. As always with Gumbo YaYa shows, there’s a corresponding post about the music I spin.

On September 28, 2023, you will be able to hear my 2021 New Music show originally aired December 9, 2021. Here’s the supporting webpage and a recording of the original show. This was my last annual holiday music buying show. It’s good stuff.

On October 5, 2023, you will be able to hear my March 2022 Dance party show originally aired March 3, 2022. Here’s the supporting webpage and a recording of the original show. Dance music!

On October 12, 2023, you will be able to hear one of the first shows I did live in the studio after the COVID shutdown. It originally aired May 27, 2021. Here’s the supporting webpage and a recording of the original show. A good story about a New Orleans brass band and a “smile” theme in gratitude for being able to see people smile again.

Those shows should hold you until I can get back into the KAOS studio. Cheers.

  1. Tim – Thanks for being out there on the web and in touch with the community, even me from Yankton SD. I’ll check it out!! Sadly after many years of being a regular listener, I no longer stream KAOS: On the KAOS webpage there isn’t a convenient way to click on a play button to stream without committing to one of the apps, which I won’t do. There are many radio stations I stream without committing to an app; I sure wish KAOS would consider this change (e.g. KOSW Ocean Shores commercial radio, KKCR Kaua’i community radio, WWOZ). That’s why I much appreciate going to your website for your shows. Best wishes, Lynn Scroggins

    1. Hi Lynn. I hope your new home is treating you well. I’ve got good news for you. If you go to Spinitron.com and type in KAOS where it says choose a station, you’ll find a player near the top. If you click the arrow it automatically streams KAOS (or any other station you select initially) live. BUT the best bit is that if you type in the date and time of my show, you can hear my show even if its not live. No download required. Cheers.
