An early morning sonic sojourn - ears up for new Mexican Summer jams!
Mexican Summer general manager Warren Köningsmark comes to Brooklyn's favorite shipping container for the first hour of selections- Colin and Max take over for the second.
Jake and Max welcome Colin, the newest member of the Freak clan, with two hours of their most spaced selections yet.
After a balearic warm up set by Max, Bob Jones of Eaters graced the studio with his drum machine and broke down the wall to new dimensions.
Our own Jefre Cantu-Ledesma joined us in the studio on the way upstate for an hour of reggae & the like -- followed by an hour of the Freaks at their finest for Rachel's last show.

Pill's Andrew Spaulding and Benjamin Jaffe laid it on thick between bites of hibiscus infused donuts, Max plays a favorite funk record at half speed, and Rachel brings us back to earth with cuts from around the globe. Fun was had indeed.

Globe-trotting DJ, buyer at Academy Records, true gem of a man Ron Like Hell joins us for our first episode at our new home, The Lot Radio.

In this excursion through Freak Terrains, our guests Dungen dig deep into their record collections, Andrew Kidman talks Litmus / Glass Love and Jon from Pill shares ideal ensemble costumes.
The Freaks invite Jesper Eklow of Soldiers of Fortune and Endless Boogie in for an hour of unheard demos and "shit rock." No Joy call in from the van and talk tour eats, and we debut the latest from Quilt + Connan Mockasin / Devonté Hynes.
