WFMU's Electile Dysfunction '08

If you liked WFMU's RNC Remix in 2004, you're going to love what we've got in store for Election Day. While our normal Tuesday programming airs online and over the airwaves, we'll be running a separate webstream to appease our most politically-obsessed listeners. WFMU's Electile Dysfunction '08 features political music, comedy, commentary, and audio art. And when the first polls close at 6pm, we'll bring you live election returns coverage hosted by Chris T., Billy Jam, Clay Pigeon, and Evan "Funk" Davies. The full schedule is after the jump.

What, no Irwin? Come on, that would make for some compelling radio. His gay marriage in the arugala combine farms is only a day away!

[Hatch]

We're hoping for an Irwin cameo at some point on election night. Maybe if enough blog readers make nice comments about him we can convince him to show up.

[Sean Daily]

Nice comment about Irwin.

So there.

Now get off my lawn, you darned kids, before I set m'dogs loose on ya.

You guys do realize that near 75 percent of Chris T.'s show description consists of Spiro Agnew quotes?

You just thought you could let that fly?

I can't figure out where to find Electile Dysfunction either. Despite guidance on your main play station, I still don't see where to click for the special show. Can you guys post a comment here that tells us what to do? Thanks.

[K]

Follow LJ's instructions. Worked for me. BTW, what's playing right now is cracking me up. Moscovite ode to Sarah Palin, link me to that MP3 PLEASE!
