Get Up with MorningWood

UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who pledged this morning - I surpassed my goals for number of calls and dollars. If you missed my show, pledge sometime this week, and help keep community radio alive in Tampa Bay.

I need your help right now - today - between 4 and 6(eastern) this morning. Call and pledge your support to keep MorningWood and Community Radio going strong in Tampa Bay.

Pledge NOW: 813 238-8001 or 813 239 WMNF WOOD or Online

Get Up with MorningWood, on 70,000 Watt Community Radio WMNF 88.5 fm, Tampa, and streaming at wmnf.org 4 to 6 am (eastern) every Tuesday!

Studio line: 813-239- WMNF WOOD

MARATHON

Yes, WMNF has had a buttload of pledge drives this year, and MorningWood has been involved in all of them. This is the last one for a while, and absolutely the last one this year. This time, we need money strictly for day to day operations. We’ll worry about the new building later.

Remember: WMNF has no sugar daddies except for our listeners. No university affiliation. We pay to play NPR, and get little or no federal money. This is your radio station, and we remain beholden only to you.

Blogging on the radio

We’ll have a little Columbus Day “celebration” featuring the words of Howard Zinn just before 5 am.

Mixing in money and marathon and just a little GWB this morning, but most of the focus will be on raising funds to keep WMNF on the air.

Morning Woodies: special premiums only available to MorningWood pledgers

The first generous listener to pledge $150.00 or more will get a genuine George W. Bush Pants On Fire doll, suitable for waving, equipped with a suction cup for hanging, sure to bring out the envious glances from all of your friends. This doll is about 14 inches from boot tips to cowboy hat, and is offered as a bonus on top of any other premium gift you negotiate for. Only one doll available! Be the first to pledge $150 or more to get this doll!

The first 5 pledges of any amount will get a TrueMajority.org pull out flag pen, featuring a handy chart illustrating just how much we spend on our military budget. Only 5 pens available! Pledge early...

Everyone who pledges this morning will get a MorningWood Fall 2004 Marathon CD, featuring the Mp3s I found sitting around on my desktop. Really. There’s some really good stuff, a lot of it brand new and not yet played on MorningWood. Tune in this morning to hear selected cuts from this Bonus CD! Just Pledge. You’ll get a CD.

These bonus gifts are on top of our regular offerings of CDs and T-shirts and such. Just tell the volunteer operator what you want.

Playlists

Each week, I bring my planned songs in on CD. I usually end up playing most or all of them in the planned order. But sometimes things go askew. Sorry - no guarantees or refunds.
