Been too long...

You're probably wondering why I haven't updated this blog with my recent show playlists.

The good news is Flight of the Squawkatiel is still on 90.1 WRUV at the usual time, 8-10 pm on Wednesdays. My life has been a little crazy and I haven't had as much time for extra radio show stuff lately (besides doing my show each week).

Stay tuned for more updates! I'm looking to move this blog to another site (most likely Tumblr) and will hopefully have each week's show available for you to listen to there! I will also be joining Twitter, so you can follow me there for updates. I have some really cool stuff coming up later this year as well as next Spring, so keep in touch!

Also, I have updated my "Squawk 40" Soundcloud playlist at the bottom of the page - check it out for some awesome tunes I'm really enjoying right now!

I'm really excited about my next show coming up this week! There's a bunch of great new music to play - including Minus the Bear, Alt-J, Great Good Fine Ok, Zola Jesus, Foxygen and more! Be sure to tune in this Wednesday from 8-10 pm at http://wruv.org/wruv128.m3u

Playlist for 8/20/14: Pet Songs

This Wednesday, I went to an event at the Humane Society for dogs and their owners before coming in to do my show, so for the second hour I played songs with a theme of animals you keep as pets - mostly dog & cat songs, but also a few bird and rabbit songs as well.

If you missed the show, you can listen online until next Wednesday night at http://wruv.org/thisweek?2014-08-20_2000h_Wed-Flight_of_the_Squawkatiel_with_McSquawk.m3u or http://wruv.org/schedule/wednesday
