New music today will include 🎵 by Franz Ferdinand (Glasgow, Scotland, ), Horsegirl (Chicago, IL, ), Lambrini Girls (Brighton, England, ), Matching Outfits (Berlin, Germany, ), Shaw’s Trailer Park (Brighton, England, ), & Throwing Muses (Newport, RI, ).

As usual today’s 480 Minutes program begins at 9 a.m. Eastern U.S. Time & is live-hosted until 5 p.m. The show is rebroadcast in its entirety on Friday evenings beginning at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and Sundays at 1 a.m. ET.

New music, you say? Why yes, yes indeed, we have new music for you today.

Said new 🎵 will include songs by King Ropes (Bozeman, MT, .Ropes), Phantogram (Saratoga Springs, NY, ), & Tunde Adebimpe (TV on the Radio, ).

As usual today’s 480 Minutes program begins at 9 a.m. Eastern U.S. Time & is live-hosted until 5 p.m. The show is rebroadcast in its entirety on Friday evenings beginning at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and Sundays at 1 a.m. ET.

“480 Minutes” - 2025

1999 was weird. 2000 was really weird. 2001 was almost as weird. 2010 was a bit weird. Since then it’s felt more & more normal with each passing year. Until now: 2025. Think about that date. 1/4 of the way through the century *after* the one many of us arrived in as adults. It’s also seems shiny & sci-fi-y to me. I don’t know why, the gun just went off.

Today’s 480 Minutes program, the first in this new shiny & sci-fi-y year, should be noticeably more free-form than the average episode. So what’ll happen? That’s just it. We don’t know! Maybe something bad. Maybe something good.

As usual today’s 480 Minutes program begins at 9 a.m. Eastern U.S. Time & is live-hosted until 5 p.m. The show is rebroadcast in its entirety on Friday evenings beginning at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and Sundays at 1 a.m. ET.

Until the blessed day we land ourselves the most amazing studio space ever, please donate to BAGeL Radio to help keep us on the air & commercial-free by making a (U.S.) tax-deductible donation and/or buying stuff from our merch store like this snapback hat, available in multiple colors & color combinations:

“480 Minutes” - Refining Aspirations

Here is another example of a future BAGeL Radio studio we’d like to see. Sign on as a charter member for just $5000 & get the recognition you deserve: your name etched into the top titanium lock (of 7) on the studio door.

We will have another unusual episode of 480 Minutes today in which we spend a little time on the “Bingo Misses,” songs that didn’t make our top 50 list but did make our “most bi***ed about because they didn't make our top 50 list” list.

As usual today’s 480 Minutes program begins at 9 a.m. Eastern U.S. Time & is live-hosted until 5 p.m. The show is rebroadcast in its entirety on Friday evenings beginning at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and Sundays at 1 a.m. ET.

Until the blessed day you find us that most amazing studio space ever, please donate to BAGeL Radio to help keep us on the air & commercial-free by making a (U.S.) tax-deductible donation and/or buying stuff from our merch store like this perfect 15 oz. (also available in 11 oz.) black glossy BAGeL Radio coffee or tea or Kool-Aid or mocha mug. Kathy in Sunnyvale ordered one, so you know they are of tip top quality:

We are back online following some technical difficulties.

Tune in now!

We dispatched Truman & Sal to the roof of the BAGeL Radio skyscraper observatory & they plugged the antenna back in…or was it the transmitter...either way, they resolved the issue & BAGeL Radio is back online & streaming.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

“480 Minutes” - Aspirational Studio

If you want to give BAGeL Radio the bestest holiday gift ever & you know of an available penthouse office with NYC skyline views we can have, that would do the trick. It would be ideal if the space was zoned for mixed-use, had 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, outdoor space, an elevator (or matching Batpoles, we’re nothing if not reasonable around here), 2-car indoor parking, & a living room that would comfortably fit a dozen pinball machines & a half dozen arcade games.

As the holidays approach many will be traveling, visiting with family, or otherwise vacationing… Not us! We’re at work, back with another live-hosted episode of 480 Minutes. As I may have mentioned in the past about post top-music episodes, this show may be unpredictable, so buckle your Car Seat Headrest.

As usual today’s 480 Minutes program begins at 9 a.m. Eastern U.S. Time & is live-hosted until 5 p.m. The show is rebroadcast in its entirety on Friday evenings beginning at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and Sundays at 1 a.m. ET.

Until the blessed day you find us that most amazing studio space ever, please donate to BAGeL Radio to help keep us on the air & commercial-free by making a (U.S.) tax-deductible donation and/or buying stuff from our merch store like this seriously awesome BAGeL Radio hot or cold bottle that keeps hot liquids hot & cold liquids cold like nobody’s business:
