You guys are more generous than I am about to be: 0.5 in 6+. It'll be right where 106.7 was the first time this was attempted.

106.7's first few books were in the mid to upper 1's.

Probably a 1.5 share.

Credit where it is due:

They're playing all 80s and 90s stuff this morning. "Post Modern". As I type, Weezer is playing. Heard Faith No More also. THIS is what the station needs to sound like and I dig it!

Edit: now playing The Smiths "How Soon Is Now" into Porno For Pyros. Come on, Alt...make this full time!

Definitely a syndicated show. Music sounds like it's monaural. I do like the playlist so far! Thanks for letting all of us know about this programming.

Pleasantly surprised by this show -- might be the one thing Entercom got right here...

Nearly all the songs played can be heard on Sirius XM Lithium at least occasionally.

So sick of "My Own Worst Enemy" by Lit. I wish that song would go away.

Porno for Pyros' "Pets" is the only pick that has thoroughly impressed me so far.

Other than that ubiquitous song by Lit, I've enjoyed the selections.

Play Letters to Cleo, the Rentals or Primus, and I'll be more impressed.

With the 1995 Wheels segue, they go from "Plowed" by Sponge into "Low" by Cracker. I have really been enjoying this show. Complements to them for this show. This is just what us 80s and 90s alternative fans needed.

I'm going to weigh in with a prediction of a 2.5 share or higher for their first book, 89X and the River probably had a 3 share combined, they will get many of those listeners. The i fart ALT still had to compete with the Canadian stations for listeners despite the fact that they didn't subscribe to the ratings.

The other Porno For Pyros track that charted is "Tahitian Moon" but I'd be surprised if they go that deep. Was this a syndicated Sunday program?

Yep, “Postmodern” which is only syndicated to Entercom’s alt stations. https://www.radio.com/alt987detroit/hos ... scott-lowe

Only decent thing they have on there at the moment...

Except when they cut off a good song to go to commercial so they can station ID at the top of the hour.....


They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.

They really did that. I couldn't believe it. Really good song and they even apologized for cutting it off with an automated bumper voice. I don't even remember the song(because my memory is crap), but I hadn't heard it since the 90s. I was really pissed.
