I listen to c2c through a few local streams. Democracy now once in awhile. 

I want something live or rebroadcasted on a live network. Something that gives me hope for greater truth(s) and somewhat fantastic.

Anyhow what do you listen to through your smart phone or online?

I don't listen to much live radio anymore, unless I'm logging numbers stations or listening for space oddities. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of talk worth hearing live lately.

Favorite podcasts include:

WTF with Marc Maron (obviously)
Thelema Now (the official podcast of the Ordo Templi Orientis)
Aural Apocalypse (the only podcast dedicated to apocalyptic neofolk and martial industrial music)
Lexicon Valley (Bob Garfield from NPR's On The Media discussing word origins and dialect)
Slate Culture Gabfest (bunch of over-educated windbags discussing shit that doesn't really matter)
Selected Shorts (short stories read live in front of a live audience)
New Yorker Fiction (monthly short story podcast)
Brainwashed Radio (great music podcast)
The Moth (true stories told live on stage)

and I very frequently search "Jim Goad", "Boyd Rice", and "Genesis P-Orridge" for any podcast interviews I can get my hands on.

Ha.

I can always find something on the BBC or the CBC... but then again Canada has entire programs on READING!..like "Canada Reads". ... and the BBC has a large number of channels, like Radio4 Extra

maureen

on CBC check out Randy Bachman's Vinyl Tap (rock n' roll) and Saturday Night Blues with Holger Peterson

Genesis.. ..poor thing has some serious brain damage imo.

Martial industrial?

I think I need to check out this aural apocalypse

Saturday Night Blues with Holger Peterson

Is this the dude with a bit of a monotone voice? It's not strictly blues is it? I mean, he showcases just about anything with blues influence no?  I heard someone talking about recording techniques before effects were invented. Some really interesting stuff, like recording in a tank of water to create a reverb on a guitar.  :o

I disagree. Gen was one of those people who completely transformed my life and the way I view the world. But I understand where you're coming from.

Hardcore History (learned about it from a fellow bellgabber)

The Witching Hour (nothing to do with paranormal, and not quite free at $4/monthly).  Good entertainment though.

The KCRW music channel is excellent and an industry standard.

No doubt gen has been prolific at times, but he's had some serious freak outs and said some really hurtful words to so called friends, who are now deceased. I hold a bit of a grudge on gen, because I see the emotional immaturity and volatility so close to the surface. I don't know if that's rock star syndrome or what?

I also just hold a much higher regard for balance and christopherson, and even though they probably would sooner shrug genesis off knowing how selfish or self interested he is, I don't know if his artistic value warrants excuse for the shit he's pulled

That being said got any links to your fave spoken word of his?

ah man I completely understand. Sleazy was a tremendous influence on me as well. His death was such a shock. COIL was huge in my life, and both he and Jhonn Balance were intense, magical figures. It sucks knowing they're both gone, and that's all we're ever gonna get from COIL or TG. Gen was particularly douchey to Sleazy in his last days, and even managed to split from TG mid-tour like three weeks prior, so I totally get that resentment.

Sounds like we have common interests. Good to "meet" you. I do have a link to one of my fav Gen/PTV spoken word things, actually. Found it just the other day after going without it for more than a decade. It's from the Psychic TV record "AL-OR-AL: Thee Transmutation Ov Mercury". Here's a link: PSYCHIC TV & XKP - Red Lion And White Eagle

WFIT; Melbourne , Florida College station & NPR( nominally) Florida Institute of Technology, Friday night Blues show w/ Gary Z on Friday nights 8 to10PM then Blues Revival 10 to12 pm after Mr.Z's show. Gary and I shared a couple houses back in the 80's. There are a lot of good jazz programs on that station too  but Z's and Rev.Billy's revival show following Z's show are the ones I like .

I love videos like that.  I take it you've seen all the threshold houseboy choir videos?

Did you ever take to pwog: http://youtu.be/CQlsT0-SZZE

So much of eno & fripp's the pearl is in that song. I can't get enough of it lately

Thanks

I had a Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia record at one point but I never really gave it a fair listen. And Threshhold Houseboys Choir was freakin' brilliant.

Sambo

Pwog's a lot more techno/ebm with hints of darker roots. Ov biospheres and sacred grooves is a great chill out album

THC is a good listen, but it should be watched: http://youtu.be/hdCQKajCsas

It's a bit graphic

"A View from Space"- Saturdays on am640 talk radio, out of Toronto
"the Conspiracy Show" with Richard Syrett - Sundays on Zoomer Radio 740, also out of Toronto

Sambo

The spaceman. I like his knowledge of ancient history and the occult. I wish he was also well versed in psy-coms.  I like him for the most part. Sometimes I have to turn off his monotonal sinister voice if only to save my spirit lol
