This Week's Theme: Springbok Puzzle "Play That Beat" One of the most creative aspects of making these shows is the constant need to come up with new themes.

This Week's Theme: Kinks Kovers The Kinks are a band that I did not know very well beyond a few of their albums and songs until I recently explored their music with Faux Junior.

This Week's Theme: First of October The Faux Shows in October were the longest, most researched yet. It wore me out! That is why this month's Faux Shows may be a little simpler. What better way to start November than with the First of October? My guess is that you aren't familiar with this band … Continue reading Radio Faux Show Volume 1, Number 36 (November 7, 2021): First of October
This Week's Theme: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Snubs I have a love/hate relationship with The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Rock Hall). I've visited a few times, about once per decade, and I've enjoyed the time spent there. The exhibits tend to be hit or miss, but I certainly don't think it … Continue reading Radio Faux Show Volume 1, Number 35 (October 31, 2021): Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Snubs
