On Purpose

On Purpose

If time stopped for thirty minutes right now, to resume after, and it’s just you on this earth, what are you doing for this one extra hour, this small pocket of time? This was the first question we discussed on air and asked our friends in the coming days, and that I still do. Many responses were rob a bank or lock in, but then, are we always in transit to the next thing? Is that the way we want to live? What does it mean to live life with purpose and how can or should we fulfill that? We think it starts with conscious deliberation of these very ideas, ideas on political philosophy, sociology, and how we should engage in our daily lives. So for a half hour a week, time pauses in the top floor of the WYBC Radio Station as we invite on guests for discussions on purpose, on purpose.

Insufferable Threesome

Insufferable Threesome

Each week, the three of us will pick a theme, then each play a song that we feel fits that theme and talk about them. We pretty much repeat this about 6-7 times a show and we often try to have a through-line between all 6-7 themes. The genres vary pretty widely, and our differing music tastes allows for a great show!

Genre: Indie

The Smiling Hour

The Smiling Hour

Hi there, my name is DJ Cold BrÜ, and prepare to die … of laughter (Princess Bride reference). If you’ve come to get sound grad school and / or life advice, you’ve come to the wrong show—I’m still figuring it out as a Radio Rebel. I love to shoot the breeze with my friends and expand my musical horizons. On the show, you’ll meet some amazing people I’ve come across during my time at Yale that seriously need airtime. Thanks for tuning in!

Genre: Comedy / Talk Show
