All hands on deck: WFMU is approaching our once-a-year fundraising Marathon!
Unlike many other droll and dour public radio beg-a-thons, your pals here at Freeform Headquarters make sure our Marathon is spastic, exciting, and a little bit dangerous. Be sure to tune in to WFMU March 2nd - 15th for some very special programming including DJ tag teams, on-air stunts, prize giveaways, and on March 13th (8-11pm) Yo La Tengo will play cover song requests for your pledges. Marathon time is also an excuse for DJs to play their favorite hits, so the tunes are sure to be choice.
We've got a new line of swag including t-shirts, a coupon pack, a locked-groove LP, hoodies, and tons of great DJ Premiums for the taking! Check out the mountains of goodies and make your pledge right here.
Early pledges help us a lot, and for those who can make a paid pledge of $180 or more by March 8th can claim naming rights to an item or person at WFMU. Check out our virtual adoption gallery to view the fixtures and DJs in need of your generous attention.
You may have noticed that this blog, WFMU's programming, website, podcasts, playlists, archives, and live streams never contain any advertisements, sponsors, or underwriting (a complete anomaly these days even among non-commercial outlets). This is because we are supported entirely by listeners, freeing us from money with strings attached, and allowing us to provide you with all of the crazy fun and magic you see here. We hope you can help us keep it that way!
We hope we can keep it that way too. Trust me, we do.
peace

Is there no donation map this year?

Hi Rufus, our technical staff is working on the map and we hope to have it up soon. If you understand nerd talk... there's some issue involving 1's and 0's that needs to be resolved.
