Today Was a Good Day - old time radio gangsta fun on [WZRD]

As a young man with an inquisitive mind and an active social life, there's nothing I want to listen to on this beautiful, sunny Friday evening more than educational programming and classic hip hop, so today's show is all old radio and rap music I listened to in high school.



"Why Did the Anarchist Cross the Road", a radio special about radical comedy put out by the Great Atlantic Radio Conspiracy in 1994.

Ice Cube - Today Was a Good Day
The Wu Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M.

"Sounds of Chicago" with John Corbitt and the Experimental Sound Studio. Radio Dada visits Sounds of Chicago for an old fashioned sound collage in 1990.

Da Brat - Fa All y'all
Bone Thugs N Harmony - Thuggish Ruggish Bone
Timbaland & Magoo (feat. Missy Elliott and Aaliyah) - Up Jumps da Boogie

"Burns and Allen" - Classic pretelevision comedy, advertizing and shmaltz jazz from George Burns and Gracie Allen, A lot of stereotypey, women are frivolous type ofhumour, first aired 60 years and a month ago, on March 13, 1947.

Crucial Conflict - Hay
The Fugees - Fu-Gee-La
Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip 'Thou Shalt Always Kill'

"High on the Airwaves: The High Times Radio Hour Demo" a demo tape of a marijuana themed radio show that may or not have ever made it, put out by High Times agazine. Impeccably curated music and film samples from the likes of the Beastie Boys, Emergency Broadcast Network, Dash Rip Rock, Clerks, Dazed and Confused, et cetera. Interviews with Woody Harrelson and Hunter S Thompson.


[Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip doing "Thou Shalt Always Kill" - this song wasn't from the old school collection, but it's pretty awesome like a British hipster mix between Gil-Scott Heron's "The Revolution will Not be Televised", Material's "Words of Advice for Young Children" with William S. Burroughs, and that Baz Luhrman "Always Wear Sunscreen" joint]
