Radio NewYork International

Of course Mine will be made using Cherry Garcia Ice Cream and Barcardi 151 rum, as that is the only way I can do The A Little Bit Of Everything Radio Extravagonzo, no less listen to myself.

Yes, this Sunday, while many indulge their fetish for large men in padding knocking the shit out of each other, I’ll be blissfully ignoring the sports holes folly and concentrating on my own, with the mix of stories, caustic timely commentary and dumb bits you’ll revel in THREE BIG HOURS of!

Our post game musical tour begins ON-LINE ONLY at 7:30 Eastern time, and the whole shebang you’ve been lubing up for all week commences at 8 PM Eastern, on-line and on WBCQ, as per usual.

Go to JohnLightning.com to LISTEN LIVE to our stereo stream, or find your way over to 5110 Mhz. on your shortwave machine, to listen on an actual radio.

As always, your attendance is mandatory. Spike the ball game, and join the Super Bowl of Broadcasting, when the 11L Network and original formula Radio NewYork International salutes radio with a big middle finger, Sunday, from 8 to 10 PM… be there, or else when Vito and Tony get back from the game, they’ll be heading your way… and should the Giants lose… Ooofah! they’ll surely take their foul mood out on you… you have been warned pally!

We have spent some time compiling comments about the flagship show of Radio NewYork International and the world renound 11L Network, so you will hopefully be lured in to listening to hear one of the unsung radio greats (as John does tend to grate on many!).

 01/01/12 UPDATE:  We have added Mike Feders New Years Eve Lynn show from Sirius XM, including an open segment of Lynn from WABC that I found on a reel dated 03/07/92, that is particularly poignant. The Feder show (scoped) and The WABC segment (also as a sepertate file) can be streamed or downloaded at the link below.

Look for these new file names:

LYNN AUDIO LINK:  http://johnlightning.com/public/

 Notice about these postings:  To make the Lynn show Mr. Feder did available for listening by as many of Lynn’s fans as possible, I posted a notice of the files ‘availability’ on the Mecca of all Internet radio Message Boards, The New York Radio Message Board. (http://www.musicradio77.com/wwwboard/)

The man responsible for providing this invaluable site, Allan Sniffen, was kind enough to point out to me, the legal ramifications of posting the Sirius-XM show.

I am a long time subscriber, and have archived many of their programs in my collection, and have never posted any, as I do understand that posting anything other than brief clips of such programming can constitute copyright infringement.

I did make this exception, considering the nature of the broadcast, and realizing that most of her loyal listeners, save for those such as I who subscribe to Sirius-XM, and have promoted it, as I often do during my programs, may not get to hear it, unless Sirius-XM rebroadcasts it.

Indeed, I would suggest that they have Lynn’s web master edit a ‘Best Of’ series of shows to run in her old slot for a few weeks, it would be a proper tribute and hopefully worth the cost of production, and having it there could lure in new subscribers to ‘check out’ their service.

Much of Lynn’s more recent Sirius-XM audio has been posted elsewhere without any problem, I’d like to think this is because the management of Sirius-XM understands the desire for her listeners to hear her once more, and realizes that none of us posting such, are doing so are for any personal gain.

That said, yes, I know, it makes it no more legal, but that is my justification. After a week, I shall remove the Sirius-XM audio which hopefully will be allowed to remain posted until then. Should I be asked to remove the file prior to that time, I certainly shall.

I am not concerned with ‘not getting caught’, as was pointed out to me, but rather with making available what many of the members of her radio family may have missed, that I think they would enjoy. And it allows many to hear Mike Feder, another long time part of my talk radio life, who much like me, first got really interested in radio by doing volunteer work at WBAI many decades ago. His approach to radio is one I know my listeners will enjoy, and should hear. He is on Sirius-XM albeit too sparingly. Hey, management, more air time for Mike, that will sure keep me a subscriber (and hopefully many others who seek quality talk radio)!

Thanks again to Mr. Sniffen for his board, and his doubtlessly wise advice.

Hopefully this ‘one shot’ posting will remain available this week.

 I’ll be back LIVE on the 8th of the month with an all new Extravagonzo, in the grand tradition of talk radio with the REAL free speech difference (and PAMS jingles, and scratchy records, and odd callers…)
