This week Jennifer Waits joins us live in studio as we remember Don Joyce, a pioneering sound artist and member of the culture jamming musical group Negativland, who passed away on July 22. We also discuss AT&T’s plan to activate the FM radio’s on the carrier’s Android phones, and KEXP’s recent 12-hour marathon broadcast exploring every song sampled on the Beastie Boys seminal “Paul’s Boutique” album.


In College Radio Watch Jennifer takes us on a tour of KWVA-FM at the University of Oregon, and Matthew Lasar reads excerpts from some poems about radio.
