I used to feel stupid that I couldn't muster enough music to fill a 'best of 2013' list. I just never listened to a lot of music as it just comes out and used to think that was dumb.
There's just so much music out there that I'm always discovering something new (to me) and so much music coming out today just seems to be derived from something that came before it anyway. A lot of the new records I buy are reissues, too.
Now I feel like that where music is concerned, I zip back and forth through time, non-linearly. I don't really care about music that's coming out NOW (whenever that was) - I'll get to it eventually (whenever that is), if it resonates with me at the time (wherever that will be).

Audio of KBOO's 2009 New Year's Eve party

I was going through the vast Kill Ugly Radio archives and found this audio file without an episode page.

I'm running 10.5.8 and it seems to be working fine.

Pretty funny stuff. Portland anchor Ken Boddee even makes the cut.
My favorite part is where an anchorman channels Kurt Schwitters at around 12:43.

Here's a last-minute substitution show I did last Thursday evening (12/26).
Lots of silly Christian records, some L. Ron Hubbard, The Weatherman (Negativland), Rolf Harris gets mashed up, some Fall and more.

I did a last minute substitution slot on KBOO Community Radio and here it is.

"...most Horror Hosts do not make a lot of money–Elvia is the 1%. There is no health plan for vampires, witches or werewolves. Like most artists, musicians, and theater people, a large part of what we do is a labor of love..."
