Before we start meditating and manifesting all the things we want this holiday season, we have a day off from school, work and diets to recognize all the amazing people, experiences and privileges we have in our life. Let’s start it early this year, with two hours of moody melancholy and psychedelic madness to soundtrack the reflection. We’ll hear from Peace Orchestra, Mister-yahu, Richard Thompson, Trans Am, Sparklehorse, Jerry G, World Party and many other ghosts from Thanksgivings past, present and future. My promise – a great way to lift and plunge your spirit on a dreary afternoon.

Join me this Friday at 1 pm (Chicago time) at 88.9 fm if you are hanging out on or around the IIT main campus, or – better yet – crank up that computer and listen to the live stream at www.radio.iit.edu

- your elusive and effusive host,
DJ Jon

…with the sounds of revolution. This week we’ll check in with the soldiers on the front line of the militant peace movement. Passionate transmissions from Michael, Matis, Trevor Hall, Joe Israel and other near casualties of the war on fascism and world apathy. Plus, plenty of that other-worldly trippy madness that will make you put down your books, hang up the telephone, and swirl around the room until you reach nirvana or start selling Buicks. Get it?

Join me this Friday at 1pm (Chicago time) on the radio dial at 88.9 fm – if you are on the  IIT main campus – or streaming live on the web at www.radio.iit.edu

Always in the room,
DJ Jon

This week I’ll be doing my part for the economic downturn, playing music that suggests alternative career paths for those in the market. Butcher, baker, incense-maker…soldier, spy, CTA Driver, experimental aircraft inventor – the possibilities are as endless as your imagination. And I’ll be playing lots of groovy music and far-out jams as you move your cheese, color your rainbow, and prepare for the new world order, and your place in it.

DJ Jon

This week we’ll be comprehensively exploring and explaining the I Ching Book of Changes. Guest academics will provide their insight into this philosophical and spiritual masterwork, and I will dissect the major divinations and cosmology in terms we can all understand and apply to our daily challenges and tribulations. In the time leftover, we’ll groove to the rockin’ sounds of The Mumlers, Davy Knowles, Blood Meridian, State Radio, Trevor Hall and some old favorites you’ve come to appreciate or loath over the years we’ve been running this horse race.

Join me Friday at 1 pm, on the radio at 88.9 fm – if you are in the IIT house – or streaming live at www.radio.iit.edu

peace in -

DJ Jon
