Anddddd We're back!!

Hello world =) Thanks for following us on Facebook- or rather, 'liking' us (please continue to do so). There have been a few changes made to the show. First, there is only one host of Local Radiation remaining- Aleks (formerly known as Wazoo) the other two are off venturing the world. Also, the show is now TWO whole hours long(Wednesdays 6-8pm)! That's something that people have been wanting to happen for a while.
As for the shows themselves, we've been getting a lot more interest from bands in coming into the studio and playing live sets. So for a while, the Local R calendar will be packed and we'll be getting some live action and let them do their thing.
Yesterday, we had Euro-Asia play. Next week, we will have Astari Nite come into the studio, not to mention a good amount of local music.

If you guys want to send your requests, the best place to reach me at is my facebook:
