We get some end-of-the-year music recommendations from Anthony Fantano. He’s the man behind The Needle Drop, which is a blog, YouTube channel and radio show that can be heard on WNPR. He is the “internet’s busiest music nerd.”

We have a bonus song included in the web version of this segment. Here is a list of all the songs Anthony and John discuss for the latest edition of the Where We Live/The Needle Drop mashup.

Andrew Jackson Jihad - “Zombie by the Cranberries”
BADBADNOTGOOD - “The World is Yours/Brooklyn Zoo”
Nicolas Jaar - “Why Didn’t You Save Me”
St. Vincent - “Cruel”
*The Log.OS - “Cancerous”
Veronica Falls - “The Fountain”

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
