The Syndicate

We're back! Tonight we'll kick things off with a little ska: Reel Big Fish! Linking them to English keyboardist Richard Wright in under an hour. Let's look to get underway at 7:30pm ET. Join us in the reveal channel on discord if you are so inclined.

I've got the St. Patrick's Day themed program ready to roll. Let's look to try our luck for say, 7:30pm ET.

For tonight's edition, I've got nine tunes for you, taking us from singer-songwriter Ray Weston to Katy Sagal (yes, Peg Bundy). Lots of variety tonight. Let's shoot for 7:15pm ET (in the Discord reveal channel as always).

Toby Keith passed away recently, so we'll kick tonight's show off with one of his hits, and in under an hour, we'll end up hearing from the Dixie Dregs. We'll be visiting many genres: Country, southern rock, metal, new age, and jazz rock fusion. Hope to see you around in the reveal chat in Discord at about 7:30pm ET.

I've got tonight's show ready to go. This evening at 7pm ET, we'll be linking Celtic rock band Bad Haggis to the late King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson. While there's a lot of twists and turns, this is definitely a "some you know, some you don't" set.

Just a six pack tonight, as we connect the experimental post-metal band (what even is that?) known as maudlin of the Well to The Danny Fisher-Lochhead Large Ensemble, a talented jazz outfit. Join us please at 7pm ET if you don't mind.

Join us if you will as we go from sunny San Francisco to chilly Winnipeg, doing so by way of the massive ensemble The Family Crest and eventually listening to The Details. 7pm ET. Going to serve us up a bonus track at the end just because I can.

8pm ET we're going to start with the blues! We're going Stevie Ray Vaughan to Dr. House a.k.a Hugh Laurie! Hope to see you around.

We're back at it with Rob's Radio Hour and Chained Melodies! Tonight we go from British prog rock trio Emerson, Lake & Palmer to Melissa Viviane Jefferson, someone you may know as Lizzo. In under an hour. Yes, it gets weird.

I hope you can join me for the final radio show of the year. We'll be hosting family after all next Tuesday, so this will be the last one. For today, we'll move away from our usual "connect-the-dots" format in favor of a deep cuts holiday music affair. Fix yourself a mug of hot cocoa (or a snifter of brandy, if that's your thing), and settle in at 7pm ET in the reveal channel tonight to listen to Christmas / holiday/ winter tunage that you probably won't hear in the shopping malls.

Good evening! Let's link some Roxy Music tonight to Californian vocalist Steve Perry. It'll be quite the... Journey. 7pm ET and always under an hour. It's in the Walrus reveal chat in Discord.

Given that we ended the last show with a Radiohead cover (a really cool one!), I think it's only fair we kick things off with Radiohead proper. In under an hour, we'll end up in Atlanta, Georgia to hear from American hip hop duo Outkast. The show begins at 7pm ET. Hope you see you around!

We've got a special Pacific Northwest Coast show for tonight, taking us from guitarist and vocalist Jerry Cantrell to a delightful performance by The Portland Cello Project. Ten works, less than an hour, 7pm ET in the reveal channel this evening.

Hey there people. Back at it for another hour's worth of music tonight at 7pm ET. This time, we'll travel from the whimsical bluegrass funk of Bela Fleck & The Flecktones and end our winding journey with the lovely vocals of Mr. Curt Smith. Hope to see you around in a few hours.

Happy Tuesday! Tonight at 7pm ET we go from Canadian songwriter Sarah McLachlan to multi-national prog rock supergroup Transatlantic, all in under an hour. Hope to see you around.

We'll be having a second special edition of "Chained Melodies" in a row tonight. Yesterday was Eloh's 41st birthday! In honor of that, all songs tonight will be things she likes or likely will like. No long-form progressive rock or heavy metal in this one! Tonight we go from gone-too-soon country contralto Patsy Cline to Jewel.

Hope to see you all there!

Special shoutout to @S~V~S for the idea.

We are having a Halloween themed radio show on MONDAY (not Tuesday) starting at 7pm ET. That's October 30th. Same format, same concept, under 60 minutes... but very spooky!

Look forward to seeing folks in the Walrus reveal channel in Discord at 7pm ET tonight.

You might not know the bookends, but you'll know plenty of names (and songs) in between. Tonight we start with Ed Roland and the Sweet Tea Project and end up hearing from All India Radio. As I said, lots of familiar musicians in there, and as I always promise, we keep it under one hour. Hope to see you!

Don't think I forgot about you! 7pm ET as always in the Walrus reveal channel in Discord.

Tonight we're going from easy-listening (and Psychic Friends Network Guru) Dionne Warwick to legendary Canterbury band Khan. We get there in under 60 minutes, so I hope you will join us if you've an hour to spare this evening.

Good evening- breaking our eight-pack streak at 7pm ET tonight in the walrus reveal channel in discord. Hope to see you there!

This evening, we'll go from the English psychedelic rock trailblazers Pink Floyd to the California alternative rock group Toad the Wet Sprocket. Lots of variety tonight in less than 60 minutes of tunes.

Let's make it three eight packs in a row! Show starts at 7pm ET in the Walrus reveal channel.

Tonight's program takes us from Motown legend Marvin Gaye all the way to Japanese virtuoso Hiromi. We get there in eight tracks and, as always, under the one-hour mark. As my favorite DJ puts it, "Some ya know, some ya don't."

Another eight pack for Tuesday!

This time, we go from the eccentric mind of Frank Zappa to the 90s Christian staple dc Talk in under an hour. Yes, it's weirder than you think.

We've got an eight pack on tap for tonight at 7pm ET in the Walrus reveal channel on Discord!

Our little hopscotch this evening begins with the synth pop duo The Buggles and concludes with the remarkable Kishi Bashi! As always, we stay under the one-hour mark. Hope to see you there!

Join us for volume 3 this evening at 7pm ET.

Tonight, we light up the connections between Canadian power trio Rush and... singer-songwriter Norah Jones. It's quite the journey, taking us through multiple countries all in under an hour, so I hope you can tune in!

Let's do it again tonight at 7pm ET!

This evening, we're bridging the gap between Jimmy Buffett (RIP) and Coheed and Cambria. How do we get there in under sixty minutes? Tune in to the walrus Discord reveal chat channel to find out!

^ Will try again at 8pm ET.

At 7pm ET tonight, we'll be connecting the dots between Kate Bush and Bon Iver in under 50 minutes. Hope to see you in the reveal chat of the Walrus channel on Discord this evening!

Great. It looks like Tuesday works best. Tomorrow is too short of a turnaround. So I'll start this August 29th. I'll reveal here before then who the two end pieces are.

Would you be interested in tuning in once a week to a radio program with a playlist curated by me?

The concept I have in mind is one of "Chained Melodies."

In the show, I'll name two seemingly unrelated musical acts and the show will connect them step by step on the basis of who played with whom, forming something of a chain.

If there's any interest in this sort of thing, I'd be willing to host it in our Walrus channel in Discord from 7pm to 8pm ET on a given weeknight.

I made a poll of weekdays. If you're interested, vote for any days that would suit you.

I believe TSP is going to be hosting Wednesdays at the same time for the foreseeable future, so I have omitted that day of the week.
