New Orleans, what can you say? A complete one-off in the history & geography of your Planet Earth. This extends to its longstanding listener-supported community terrestrial radio station, WWOZ-FM 90.7 mHz. A lot of public radio across America tries to be hip & eclectic & edgy, but they don’t have the organic bona fides to come across as genuine, authentic, unpatronizing. Not so this station, which is the antidote to your corporatized, AI-picked playlists & nonhuman, depersonalized entertainment stream. Today, for example, in the midst of the ‘Soul Serenade’ show, the presenter interrupted the usual flow of the programme with a double-shot of Black Sabbath in honor of the passing of Mistah Ozzy Osbourne Snr. Yup. ‘Iron Man’ followed by, of course, ‘Crazy Train’. Salute, WWOZ!
