24 Hours of D-Day Special Broadcast

admin — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 02:44:06 +0000

Starting at 3am EDT, we are proud and honored to present the annual Complete Broadcast Day of D-Day. This is 24 hours of everything that went out over the air on CBS on June 6, 1944, rebroadcast by Rat Patrol Radio at the same time of day as originally aired!

This is probably as famous among our listeners as our Christmas playlist is, and Rat Patrol Radio was one of the first webcast stations ever to present these historic broadcasts in this format. This year marks our ninth year saluting the men who stormed Fortress Europe to put an end to Nazism. Join me as we relive the electrifying events of one of the most momentous events of the 20th Century. (I still choke up and get goosebumps at 10pm when FDR leads the nation in prayer.)

2009 Christmas Playlist is Live!

I’ve just uploaded an 18-hour Christmas playlist, set to choose songs randomly. I am still working on a “hand-crafted” playlist, but have been under the weather the last few days, so it isn’t quite ready yet. Remember to rate the songs you like (and don’t!), as I will be watching the ratings and swapping songs in and out.

Work Progresses

I’m still working on customizing the new theme, though a lot of work is done. Still remaining is finding where the code is for the images along the right side and replacing them, and getting the RPR Pinup Girl logo on the masthead.

Also on the docket is getting the Christmas music ripped and uploaded. This means that some of the music presently in rotation will have to be deleted to make room. Also, a houseguest seems to have made off with some of my CDs, so I will have to build a new holiday playlist from scratch instead of using last year’s.

Christmas Playlist

My lovely and talented wife and I spent Thanksgiving with old friends and had a wonderful time. The aftereffects were that I went to bed soon after arriving home, so am still uploading Christmas songs today!

Not to worry, we’ll have a quick Christmas playlist up this afternoon (one of the advantages of working at home) and will make our patented hand-crafted Christmas mega-playlist ASAP.

Also, don’t forget that the Christmas playlist will be pre-empted in December 7th so that we may bring you the Pearl Harbor tribute show.
