@doca: it sounds like a lot until you realize what the station does with it. Then it's really amazing what they do with it. Best bang for the buck ever

@fred: Yes, exactly, I don't what are usually radio stations budgets, but for me it's amazing that WFMU runs only on one hundred thousand a month

They'll be rolling in it, once Ken's Komedy Klub is finished and they bring in people like Pauly Shore and Latka.

This is the song she wrote about her late sister. She was in tears by the end of their performance of this song at the post-Sandy record fair a year ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:32pm
fred:

It's not like they were throwing money into executive compensation either. It's a labor of love for the paid staff, and that staff is tiny. Almost all DJs are volunteers who contribute untold hours to their shows, plus duties from cleaning to the mandatory prayer circle that keeps the elevator moving. Your swag envelope might carry Kurt's saliva for all you know (that may not be an incentive)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:38pm
░╫Kℰ░:

@Doca and Fred, WNYC, the big non-commercial NPR news/talk station around here, has a massive budget and pays its chief an absurd mid-six-figure salary, yet a LOT of people in my social circle donate to them. To be fair, they have some very good programs including BBC and CBC stuff and they provide at least a few FMU DJs w/their "real" paid jobs, but I prefer to give my $$$ to FMU, a much more frugal labor of love, not a big machine full of underwriting.

@Carmichael: I think Ken renamed it the Khomedy Khlub in honor of Khlam. I heard from unnamed sources than he's legally changing his name to Khlen (unnamed sources=I just made it up)
Avatar 5:42pm
doca:

It reminds of Zumbis do Espaço, the Brazilian version of the Misfits. They have a song called "A marca dos três noves invertidos" (The sign of the three inverted nines) which is hilarious
