Happy Earth Day from MTS and The Jerk, who are celebrating this beautiful planet with psychedelic, nature-themed songs for the next two hours! To accompany this sunny weather, you'll hear some fitting tracks from Sun Ra, Kevin Ayers, Mope Grooves, Pink Floyd, Psychic TV, CAN, Bona Dish, and so many others.
Also - a GIANT thank you to everyone who gave during the Spring Fund Drive! Thanks to you, Mating Calls exceeded its peer2peer goal, and the station made over $60,000 in total! We are so grateful for the support and want to bring you a happy, sunny, and relatively talk-free two hour set as a token of our gratitude 🙏🙏🙏
