Man Eater is a feminist radio show that plays a wide genre of music and exclusively highlights women, women identifying, and gender non-binary artists, with particular spotlight to queer and POC artists. Our main focus is to empower minority voices in the music industry as well as stimulate engaging discourse on issues that affect women and minority groups by analyzing them through an intersectional lens. We talk about fashion, pop culture, and politics too.
Throwback’s hosts Cece and Jewel will do a deep dive into 2000s pop culture - everything from movies to music, fashion, and celebrity couples. Alternating between blocks of discussion and music breaks, each week we’ll talk about a different movie from the 2000s and topics like our favorite childhood fashion trends and our favorite albums to play on our MP3 players. We’ll play your favorite late-90s and 2000s artists like Avril Lavigne, The Strokes, Paramore, Gorillaz, Britney Spears, and more.
On “ISSA VIBE” we play a variety of genres and songs including R&B, hip hop, rap, and jazz featuring both new and established artists locally, nationally, and internationally. Every episode has predetermined themes, or “vibes” like: MISTY, SMOOTH, MELLOW, BEACHY, TURN UP, and LOWKEY HIGHKEY which characterize that week’s song selection and topic of conversation.
With these vibes, we discuss new music releases, news from the industry within the genres, diversity in American music and its influence internationally or vice versa, and concerts (focusing on those in Boston and the surrounding areas so our listeners are aware of up and coming/indie or other artists they are fans of). We bring guests on to showcase their perspective of the vibes and discuss that week’s topics as well as connect the vibes to their personal lives, play fun improv games, or ask questions that we come up with ourselves.
Time to listen to some K-tea! The three hilarious DJs will bring you the latest news from the South Korean entertainment world: drama, music, scandal, controversy... We will discuss topics with a knowledgeable and open-minded brain. Yes, we do have brains when it comes to the K-tea!
"Eclectic Investments" is a show about eclectic music. Each week the show will have a different theme which dictates what sort of music will be played on that day. The theme can range from a certain genre, music from a particular location, songs about a certain topic, etc. It's also the best show on the station.
On Live From the Practice Room, we explore classical music and with the people who love it. Each week, a classical music-loving guest picks a piece to spotlight. We first listen to the piece and then talk about it, often having researched previously to provide our listeners with plenty of interesting information. DJs Claudia and Isabelle, with their guest, also explore each other's paths and relationships to classical music and music-making as a whole. If time allows, at the end of the show, we play music that relates to the conversation and the spotlighted piece.
2 Reel explores the relationship between film and music. A focus is put on certain themes from the film and the songs that are selected relate to them. The music is just as important as the movie. The first talk segment of the show consists of the DJs catching up those who may have never seen the film by giving information about the year it was made, director, main characters, and main conflicts. The rest of the talk breaks consist of the DJs discussing the songs they selected and how they relate to the film. Movies we have watched and discussed in the past include City of God, Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World, Paris Is Burning, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Hereditary, Sorry To Bother You, and Jennifer’s Body.
On 7 Degrees we show just how small the music world can be. We'll find ways to connect two artists to each other in 7 degrees of separation or less. We'll discuss how each artist is connected and/or associations between them that we used to get our 7 degrees of separation. Some of our connections will be straight forwards, other will be a bit more abstract. Either way, we'll find a way to make it happen.
The world is in a state of flux. Political, economic and social conditions are more uncertain than ever. With the rise of extremism, predicting the future is getting more complex.
Beyond the Compass will center primarily on global affairs. We will invite students and professors from different disciplines — politics, economics and sociology — and explore in depth the issues at hand. We hope to examine these topics by discussing trends in domestic politics, foreign policy, the global economy, socio-cultural dynamics and beyond. We will also discuss how the media covers the news and how news organizations influence how we interpret the information. How is the media representing what is happening in the world? News organizations are more influential than ever and affect our understanding of current events by shaping how information is presented and mediating events from distinct perspectives and emphases.
Our show will appeal specifically to students and faculty from diverse backgrounds interested in global issues.
