I’m kind of amused by The Current’s promos for their “Radio Free Current” day, which includes a brief clip from the start of REM’s Radio Song. Back when I was a student at UW-River Falls, I had a radio program named Radio Free River Falls–I was intentionally aiming for something I could refer to on-air as “the lamest radio show name possible”–and I kicked off each show with the exact same clip.
I guess I may have been more clever than I gave myself credit for. Well, probably not, but sometimes I’d like to think so.
