Lamplight

is a weekly one-hour radio show that i have been
producing each spring & fall since september of 2021

i produce the show for my radio practicum courses at college. it broadcasts over the air,
reaching an approximately thirty mile radius. the station lacks an online stream, so i
take it into my own hands to also do simultaneous streams of the episodes on youtube.

the archives of these streams are almost inevitably taken down for
copyright reasons, but you can find archives of all the episodes below

i try to give each episode a theme for the songs featured, or at least
gesture at one. i am also committed to never reusing a song on the show

i've messed up on that exactly once!!! i accidentally featured
modest mouse's dramamine in episodes twelve & twenty-seven
