Here's Your Friday Schedule of Live Radio on WFMU's Drummer Stream

WFMU's Give the Drummer Radio denounces explicit and implicit racism.
We condemn the culture of White supremacy, which enables the brutalization of Black people and other communities of color.
We support Black Lives Matter and the movement it stands for.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BRILLIANT WORK PEOPLE! KEEP IT UP!
There's just two days left of the WFMU / Give the Drummer Radio month-long fundraiser. And you, dear listeners, have really come though! With a strong push over the next 48 hours, we will be assured of pulling off the best October drive in our history. This is a remarkable thing, and we are deeply grateful. But don't stop now. Find it in your heart to make one last donation to top off a month of
tremendous loyalty and generosity.

UNDERWATER THEME PARK with Meghan  |  Playlist & Chat

Special Program: Traveling Through Southern Africa
Being locked down, locked in and unable to travel, I have started to get delirious for the idea of travel. I bought new luggage, new travel bottles and yet I still see no travel in the near future.... So what do I do when I can't go anywhere, I delve in deeply into a musical adventure that takes me across a continent. Come join me in the last of the series where I travel (again) through Africa. This week we travel the Southern areas of Africa, finding music that is new to me and exciting.

HINKY DINKY TIME with Uncle Michael  |  Playlist & Chat

Special Program: 1972 versus 1971: Gaylord faces off with Uncle Michael!
WFMU's Gaylord Fields has boldly claimed that 1972 is the premier year for charted pop, r&b, and country and western singles. Uncle Michael stands defiantly in support of 1971. With nothing but time on the line, this will be settled in a no-holds-barred (metaphor-mixing) throwdown for all the marbles. Gaylord and UM will make their cases before listeners, and celebrity judge—WFMU's Therese!
