Something like that.

Hello my lovelies. Quite the heat wave we're having today, so today's TPAC features a truckload of chill-out and downtempo, with some slightly bouncier stuff at the end of the playlist. Love you guys for listening, stay alive.

Carleton Scrapbook Sustainability Special

By Claire on January 19, 2010 in scrapbook

On Sunday's edition of Carleton Scrapbook, Helen and I sat down with three sustainably-minded Carleton students, Simone Childs-Walker, Blake Hansen and Kelsey Ross, to talk about 'the issues' facing Carleton/world citizens.

Does 'sustainable' mean deprivation and sacrifice? Sustainable choices can be beyond efficient. Bike to St. Paul (or Seattle). Become a hunter-gather. Move out of Goodhue and into the arb. Tap into stored resources. Go to China to study agroecology. Join the cross country team. Dig in the dirt. Become a Sustainability Assistant. Raise animals. Grow food. Connect. Reject Ecotainers. Eat the lawn.

Go green or go home.

Show of the Week: The Family Jewels

By Ben B on October 26, 2009 in production


Every week the Program Department features one outstanding show on KRLX. This week we're featuring the program that digs deepest into the KRLX treasure trove.

Alex Walker and Ryland Bowen-Johnson take radio back to its roots. Instead of plugging in i-pods and laptops, The Family Jewels is a virtually all analog show - digging deep into the KRLX record library and dusting off the best of our vinyl. In their second term with the show, Ry and Alex devote the first hour to rock, and the second hour to the vast collection of early 90s hip-hop found on the libe's west wall. Listeners get innovative mixes, the high fidelity of classic 33 1/3s, and two audiophiles at the helm.

If you want a loving dose of KRLX circa 1991, check these two out. It's format radio at its absolute best.

The Family Jewels: Thursdays to Fridays 11:30pm - 1:30 am. Check it out.

The Carleton Scrapbook: Interview with a Greaser

By Helen on October 21, 2009 in production


The Carleton Scrapbook is KRLX's main Features show. We collect the stories of interesting people at and around Carleton - convocation speakers, extras on "Gossip Girl," and, of course, Carleton's very own celebrities.

Two weeks ago, Joe Concannon and I interviewed a young man easily recognizable for his unique fashion sense and his glistening, greasy hair. Listen to Andrew "James" Wilson's story here.

Some subjects discussed: swing, Elvis Presley, "the ladies," hair grease, having more books than friends, houses with white picket fences, rebellion, self-respect.

Listen to the Carleton Scrapbook at 2:00-3:00 pm CST to hear more.


A Conversation With James Pants

By Michael on October 20, 2009 in production

Before his incredible DJ set at the Cave last Friday night, James Pants took time out of his - ahem - busy afternoon schedule in Northfield to talk to Helen, KRLX features director, and Nicole, KRLX music director. The result is a wildly funny interview. Go Listen....












Show of the Week: Face-off with David Sacks and Jordan Narvey

By Ben B on October 12, 2009 in production

Every week the Program Department features one outstanding show on KRLX. This week, we're honoring the new starlet of our weekday talk show block.

KRLX has a legacy of great talk shows, but Face-off is quickly raising our bar of excellence. By just their third show, David Sacks and Jordan Narvey have not only demonstrated their prodigious hockey knowledge, but also their chops as legitimate sports talk personalities.

Faceoff takes listeners inside the glass with researched analysis of everything hockey. Sacks and Narvey eat, sleep, and breathe the sport, and even the most apathetic hockey observer can appreciate their entertaining passion and knowledge. Hockey fan or not, check it out for a lesson on concise, articulate and entertaining on-air banter. They are--perhaps--the best around.

From analysis of breaking news stories around the league to insight on featured games, predictions and story lines, Face-off provides listeners with an opportunity to hear the latest news from around the NHL in just 30 minutes.

I never thought I would say this about a hockey show, but I wish it were longer.

Face-off: Mondays at 4:30, only on KRLX.

For a glimpse into David Sacks' hockey obsession, check out this video produced by co-host, Narvey.
