Radio Fairfax Programs
3 Chip
I play music. You listen.
Automatic Transition
Host (Dr.) Bob takes you on a journey through the genres with a smooth blend of ambient/space, old-school hip-hop, comedy, 70's and 80's. The show seamlessly transitions (as much as one can in an hour) through these genres from the mellow to the upbeat and back to mellow, always ending with, of course, Pink Floyd. Where else can you hear Ben Neill followed by Run D.M.C. followed by Simon and Garfunkel? How about Sounds from the Ground followed by Bjork, Depeche Mode and then A Tribe Called Quest…and ending with something off Delicate Sound of Thunder?
In addition, renown parody author, Jeff Reuben, who has written over 115 parodies, will make routine appearances, providing an hour of comical music which will include showcasing his songs as well as those of up-and-coming and established parody authors, including those heard on Amiright.com Parody Stations and the Dr. Demento show. The real treat is hearing Jeff play the guitar and sing. Am I joking? Tune in. Either way you'll laugh at something.
You can learn more about Jeff Reuben at http://www.jeffreuben.com.
Furthermore, the program will occasionally feature interviews provided by the Washington D.C.-based group, Science for the People. These interviews will be with experts in various fields of science and research, including, e.g., forensics and global warming. Does this fit in with the other aspects of Automatic Transition? No, but it does make sense on some minor personal level, plus I get to call myself Dr. Bob for these shows.
So tune in for some good music (only if you like this stuff), enlightening interviews, or a laugh.

Some of the interviews heard on Eclectic Hours have included Todd Rundgren, Steve Forbert, Susan Werner, Rickie Lee Jones, Christine Lavin, Patty Larkin, Cheryl Wheeler, Ellis Paul, Janis Ian, Aztec Two-Step any many others.

Mickey Bo's Rock N Roll Revue
Mickey Bo's Rock N Roll Revue----- "A bouncy romp through the early rock ‘n' roll and pre-rock rhythm and blues playground. Boomers, this one's for you. Mickey Bo, a veteran of more than 4 decades in radio, plays the rockabilly, doo wop, and pop music you danced and necked to -- the stuff civic leaders feared would rot America 's moral fiber and your parents begged you to turn down!
It's strictly pre-British invasion music with the big hits, a lot of long forgotten oldies, and many that never even made the charts. But the Rock 'n' Roll Revue ain't American Bandstand! Here, original rock superstars Fats, Elvis, Ricky and others share the stage with ancestral 1940s and early '50s R&B artists like Louis Jordan, Wynonie Harris and Ruth Brown, who were among the first to define the new genre of music with a backbeat. This is rock 'n' roll all the way down to its roots!"

The Professor Rocks
Early American Rock’n’Roll (1952-1958)
Your host, The Professor, has never understood the point of “Oldies” shows that simply play one track after another (“Rock Around the Clock” followed by “Get a Job”) with no attempt at putting the recordings into their musical (and social) context. Isn’t it interesting, for example, that the records produced out of the Sun studios in Memphis in the mid 50s were all made by the sons of sharecroppers, who had recently moved into the cities. The Professor plays lesser-known songs by well-known singers like Buddy Holly and Carl Perkins, and also some great tracks by not-so-well-known singers such as Bobby Charles and Roscoe Gordon. He also talks about some of the musicians he’s met including Jerry Lee Lewis and Billy Lee Riley. He’ll tell you who played on each track, who wrote the song, where it was recorded, and what the singer did later in his/her career. It’s fun, you hear the best music, and you get to appreciate one of the 20th century’s great art-forms – the 2-minute record.
The Rugby Hour
Exactly what is rugby football? This subject is the essence of our show. A sixty-minute radio program about the history, great characters, nuances (subtle, obtuse and imaginative), and vast growth of rugby throughout the world.

Rugby transcends sport - it is social, political, athletic, tragic, dramatic and intellectual. Rugby is indeed a performing art.
Producers: Kurt Mockenhaupt and John Howe

England Swings
Host: Jim Burke
Our mission is to play the best, the brightest, the newest, and the coolest music from the United Kingdom. Throughout the history of popular music, the British have had influence on who and what we listen to. In recent times, though, we're hearing less of what's going on musically over there, and we're missing a whole lot of good stuff.
The England Swings show culls the best of the newest music from the UK, including rock, pop, techno, and urban songs, and blends them in seamlessly with older tunes. Each week, we have several special features, including a Fab Four Freakout (that's the Beatles, of course!), UK Music News, and a countdown of the current top 5 songs in the UK.
We also feature something rare in radio today - we give you all kinds of information on the music itself.
In times when American radio has fragmented into genres and repeated playlists, the England Swings show provides a breath of fresh air - and fresh music - for listeners. We're there every Sunday at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time (USA), ready to entertain and enlighten you.
Come and listen, you'll be delighted!
Finner and Clark Expedition
The Finner and Clark Expedition is similar to the talk radio shows found on AM radio, only better. It has semi-cool musical intros and promos, great parity songs, funny skirts, high reproduction values, tropical discussions, serious interviews with various sexperts, and risible interviews with various non-experts (everyone from the Governator of California to former President and former human being Ronald Reagan). Unlike conservative talk radio sows, however, The Andy Finn Show is NOT focused on whining, complaining, and blaming political opponents for the state of the universe. In addition, The Andy Finn Show is NOT obsessed with liberals, gays, the flag, the pledge, embryonic stem smells, the U.N., illegal immigrants, missing white women, and France. Andy is left of center, but not a 20%er. He believes that it’s the 20% of people on the far right, and the 20% on the far left, that are ruining this country for the rest of us! They must be stooped! The show is ¼ politics, ¼ social issues, ¼ personal relationships and development, ¼ technology and the Internet, and ¼ science and education. All this fits in a one hour show through the magic of digital compression and a lot of fast-talking. You can learn more about Andy, read his written work, and listen to archives of previous shows at www.andyfinn.us .

It also retains inside jokes funny only to the crew and avid listeners of the show, such as its constant insults against Wishney, PST (Psycho Stalker Teri), the Ladies Man, & Spanky. A typical show consists of prank calls, random chatter, celebrity impersonations, movie/music rants, and merciless teasing of members of the show, and callers. While the show has attracted callers/listeners of all ages & prominent musicians, the tone has not lightened. The cast of the show reveals much about its focus and source of humor.
