Thursday, June 30 0200-0300 UTC (Wed 10pm-11 EDT):  WBCQ Open Mic
This edition of WBCQ’s occasional “Week 5” broadcast includes a blues band from Argentina, Indonesian Dangdut (pop) submitted by a listener in Greece and other surprises.

Who couldn’t use a laugh about now?

On Saturday, July 2 from 0200-0300 UTC (Fri 10pm-11pm EDT), two new weeklies begin:
Saturday 0200-0230 (Fri 10pm-10:30 EDT): Orwellian Airwaves With Lainie Petersen
Lainie, an arts and public affairs producer and commentator on World Perspectives Radio and Hard Lens Media, reads from Orwell’s works.  1984 begins this Friday.
Saturday 0230-0300 (Fri 10:30pm-11:00 EDT): Greek Music Refuge
Having decided that a shortwave spectrum without any Greek music in it is unacceptable, Bill Tilford presents a balm from his own impressive collection until something better comes onto the airwaves.
