🖕🏻NBA - how much money is enough? Streaming only of “play-in” games is some heavy douchery. And 🖕🏻 @sixersnba.bsky.social while I’m at it.

Wow @wxpnfm.bsky.social, thx for another fantastic countdown! Spent the better part of the last week texting my friends and my 87 year old mother. We had a blast! Can’t wait to hear Sonic Reducer tomorrow @kristenkurtis.bsky.social 😉 Let’s support public radio folks, it’s awesome! #XPNCountdown

Johnny, great way to start……and end the last day of the countdown 🤞🏻

The #xpncountdown is heating up!

Finally got a song on the list! I know….Cry Me a River 🤪 🤘🏻#xpncountdown

The Rolling Stones journey can get confusing between the UK and US releases, but I am considering this #2! Brought my 30-something’s back for round 2. Quick impressions - cover heavy again, a bit more guitar driven, Under the Boardwalk was rough. 🤘🏻 #vinylsky

@smerconish.bsky.social, you should listen to this podcast. Pat Croce is part of the story in the most Pat way possible. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

The Rolling Stones journey has begun! Had a couple 30-something’s join in. First listen for all of us. Quick impressions - struck by number of covers, blues influence more obvious than anticipated, Keith dropped the ‘S’, Stereophonic ain’t stereo (we listened to ‘72 repressing)! On to #2 🤘🏻 #vinylsky

@wxpnfm.bsky.social - this as artsy as I get. Thanks for an awesome weekend! 🤘🏻🎵

Always been more of a Beatles guy, while my good friend is all about Mick & the boys. I'm diving into the Stones' discography—hitting up my local record shops for as much as I can find! I’ll be posting after each record. Not sure how long it’ll take, but I’m excited for the journey! #vinylsky

Not so random play of the day. I came for Valerie, but stayed for The Girl from Ipanema. My first full sized 45, needless to say 33 was a different mind of experience. Are full sized 45’s common? #vinylcommunity

Been a bit for a fun rando play on the turntable. I’m partial to Ruthym of the Saints, but I love this track from Graceland. The harmonies are beautiful.

Tomorrow, relive many of the performances from Live Aid. Starting at 10am Philly time w/ @djrobertdrake.bsky.social and myself we’ll bring you ten hours of highlights of the bands (and some special guests) who played in London at Wembley and in Philly at JFK on WXPN @wxpnfm.bsky.social

This Sunday, we're celebrating the 40th anniversary of Live Aid with a day long chronological playback of highlights from the Philly and London shows. Robert Drake @djrobertdrake.bsky.social gets it under way at 10am f/b Bruce Warren @somevelvetblog.bsky.social at 3pm. xpn.org/2025/07/09/w...

We just bombed a sovereign country preemptively (I’m being kind). Congress has completely abdicated their sworn oath to this country if this goes unaddressed. I’ll be waiting for word from: Brian Fitzpatrick John Fetterman Dave McCormick

The ‘facts don’t care about your feelings’ crowd is once again making up their own facts to make themselves feel better.

CNN put together a collection of clips of Netanyahu warning Iran is close to a nuclear weapon going back to 1996 ht: @acyn.bsky.social

Maybe it’s a Philly thing, but the Philly Sound always feels like a warm hug. I was too young to catch Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes live. Never saw Teddy in particular until after his accident. Thanks for Discogs for dialing up some great Philly chill with “To Be True” tonight. 🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Discogs spun up a great rando for me this morning “Goodbye Yellow Brock Road”. I just finished listening to Brandi Carlile’s audio book last night (highly recommend) where she affirms her Elton super fandom, so this play seems right for today! 🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Ah, Discogs helping me venture back into Prog-land. I was the odd ELP fanatic in 1980’s middle school. All 3 men are amazing, but WBMFSTNE-L&G is Keith’s album to shine as he always did live (even when stabbing the keyboard). Awesome gatefold as well! 🤘🏻 vinylcommunity

You know the night is all about the music when you don’t take a single picture of you and your companion. Great first night! @wxpnfm.bsky.social! 🤘🏻#NONCOMM

Vinyl gives me a chance to stop and realize the impact music has on me. Love that Discogs chose Hooked on Classics II. My mom was my earliest musical influence and the original Hooked on Classics was always on. She had “real” classical albums, but her neophyte son loved that one! ☝🏻 #vinylcommunity

Discogs popped with another from my mother-in-law’s collection, The Golden Hits of Lesley Gore. Would Lesley be the first album off the shelf for me on a Saturday? Of course not, but that’s what I love about listening to rando’s! You do you Lesley! 🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Spun the Discogs wheel early today and the gods spun out Turnstiles by Billy Joel. Great album featuring the best song to test the meddle of any would-be dualing pianist. Shout out to Dr. Bobby Fingers in Philly for killing it when my buddy and I requested it back in the day! #vinylcommunity

From the darkest depths of Mordor, Discogs spit out Led Zeppelin II for the spin of the day. I had a whale of a time picking the snippet to feature from this album. Nobody’s gonna like my choice so I’ll “Thank You” in advance for being gentle. 🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Discogs randomizer takes me boldly into prog rock today with The Yes Album, and I go boldly in Bluesky video! Pictures just don’t do justice to Jon Anderson harmonies. Silly human race indeed!🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Yup, it’s a rando trifecta. I can’t help but envision the claymation snowman when I hear Burl Ives sing. You haven’t lived until you imagine that snowman singing Yesterday which is covered by Burl on this album. Side note, this was one of my dollar bin gems from Vinyl Rival in Qtown! #vinylcommunity

Diving back into my M-I-L’s collection for my second rando of the day. Mary Wilson and the rest of the Supremes make a good Tuesday afternoon soundtrack. Sorry, I couldn’t resist poking a little fun Diana Ross’s spotlight grabbing tendencies (I’m sure she’ll survive my sarcasm ). 😂🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Travelled to a wonderful family reunion over the weekend, but now jonesing for Discogs rando’s! I’ll probably have a few today, but starting by casting some stones with Billy Joel! #vinylcommunity

Ok Discogs, I may call bullshit.Too many “C” bands in your rando-algorithm. Regardless, today’s feature is Rita Collins, Whales and Nightingales. Special shoutout to the humpback whales for their work on “Farewell to Tarwathie”. This came from a collection found in my childhood home. #vinylcommunity

I love alliteration so why not some rando Rita on Tuesday! Yet another from my m-i-l. I swear I do own other records. My wife probably thinks I’m looking for brownie points. #vinylcommunity

Rando-Monday! He’s good as gold! Gordon Lightfoot, Gord’s Gold. Another from my mother-in-law’s collection. I guess my favorite track should be “Old Dan’s Records” 😉🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

It’s been a good day of rando’s. #vinylcommunity

Random play o’ the day, Phil Collin’s, No Jacket Required. Great album I got from a golfing buddy. I owned the CD back in the day which includes my favorite Phil song, “We Said Hello Goodbye”. Unfortunately that track is not on the LP 😡 #vinylcommunity

Spinning the wheel with Discogs tonight and landed on Juice Newton. This one came from my mother-in-law's collection—she had some real gems! She gets a kick out of me listening to her records, and I think she was pleased to hear I listened to Juice. #vinylcommunity

This Discog wheel of fortune landed on Janis today! This album was released the year I was born. Janis is remarkable in live recordings! I know greatest hits albums can be a party foul for some, but with recordings like this I’ll gladly do it again! #vinylcommunity

Now spinning, thanks to the Discogs randomizer feature and my oddball record collection. The Creative Swingle Singers give Bach a jazzy vocal treatment. 😂🤘🏻 #vinylcommunity

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

heck yeah alan garber

Let’s cue up a new vinyl next - Franz Ferdinand’s newest album. Great listen. #vinylcommunity

Vinyl day continues! How bout some Sam Cooke. Bonus, bought from Vinyl Rival today! #vinylcommunity

Vinyl day continues with one for my wife. HoJo #vinylcommunity

Hey, it’s Record Store day, so I have to spin my favorite record store find. Midnight Oil, Bue Sky Mining is one of the sounds of my high school years - original pressing, plus blue disc! How can’t I love it? #vinylcommunity

Good morning Vinyl community, make sure to tune into @wxpnfm.bsky.social in Philly they are spinning actual vinyl all day long! Let’s get to spinning! #vinylcommunity

🎵Dann’s Tuesday Night Vinyl Treasure Trove 🎵 Found at Siren Records: Juliana Hatfield’s take on ELO classics. I’m a 90’s devotee, how could I take a pass? Especially loved Strange Magic. & Telephone Line!🤘 What’s spinning on your turntable tonight? #VinylTuesday #vinyl

I’m 51, so I understand it’s expected that I’ll be close-minded to new music. I’ve listened to all the bangers from Kendrick Lamar, I can rest in my rocker and admit, he’s not my cup of tea. 😂 #XPNcountdown

The Radiohead cabal is not high gear! 😂 Loving the #xpncountdown
