Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 4th, Noon - 3pm: Freaky Wilderness (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Freaky Wilderness includes members of Space Merchants, whose 2018 album landed in EFD’s top 10 of that year. They bring their heavy, fuzzy sound to the WFMU airwaves just days before the release of their debut album Immeasurable Heaven. They’ll preview the album in this live set ahead of the album release show on Thursday Dec. 12 at Main Drag in Brooklyn.
Wed. Dec 11th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!

	9:04pm steveL: Anger and lust!
	9:05pm Tome: when this record came out said to myself * there is a God * !
	9:10pm efd: That Pretenders album has been criminally underplayed by me.
	9:10pm Tome: to put it lightly Amen EFD ! still sounds as fresh as it did 38 years latter now !!
	9:13pm Roberto: The Pretenders with James and Pete was one of those lightning-in-a-bottle moments in rock music.
	9:14pm Loretta: did someone say lust?
	9:16pm Tome: ....Anger and lust my senses running amok Bewildered and deluded, have I been hit by a truck? ....
	9:16pm efd: Loretta! Welcome back! It's been a while
	9:24pm Loretta: hi Evan..... it's been a while 4 sure. miss you guys!
	9:24pm steveL: "It was all very... run-of-the-mill. "
	9:41pm Aitch: Super catchy this Pretty Feelings track
	9:42pm Roberto: I knew EFD would be hip to this one sooner or later.
	9:43pm efd: sooner or later?! I've been playing it since September!
	9:43pm Roberto: Mein bad. It must be all the other FMU DJs what just got hip.
	9:44pm herb.nyc: Greeeat songs now, "pretty feelings" is amazing. But starting with the 80s, I learned the Chills have a USandA tour in February. Shows at bell house and white eagle. Yay.
	9:45pm efd: EXACTLY, Roberto! :D
	9:45pm Roberto: I see what the problem is. This might be the first EFD show I've been awake for since September. I keep passing out on the couch when I get home from work.
	9:48pm Aitch: Irwin played another one earlier, Sunshine & the Rain, It's All in Your Mind that's again great pop.
	9:52pm efd: I gotcha, Roberto. Happy to have you here tonight!
	9:54pm Roberto: Thanks, EFD!
	10:00pm Folsom: So that is why Rex was on last night!
	10:00pm steveL: Sunshine and the Rain are pretty sharp. They sound like they might be able to break out. But, what do I know?
	10:25pm Aitch: Imagine ACR named from The True Wheel, Eno "We are the 801 We are the central shaft Looking for a certain ratio Someone must have left it underneath the carpet Looking up and down the radio Oh, oh, nothing there this time Looking for a certain ratio"
	10:29pm efd: exactly right, Aitch!
	10:32pm Aitch: Eno had his fingers in everything, even if just by sheer influence. Makes we want to Do the Strand.
	10:35pm steveL: Electric Citizen: Quatro-sequel vocals. Me likey.
	10:35pm steveL: Quatro-esque, damn it!
	10:36pm efd: I kind of liked "Quatro-sequel"... like a follow-up to Suzi
	10:40pm steveL: Autocorrect makes me an f-ing genius
	10:52pm Mister Dobalina: May I have some more horn.
	10:57pm Phillippe Bastille: hey efd and everyone
	10:58pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD, SteveL, and all nice people! About to drive home from New Brunswick so thanks for being my soundtrack.
	11:00pm efd: hey Jack! Drive safely, I'll try to keep you awake. :) Surprised you're not back for more YLT!
	11:00pm efd: bonsoir Phillippe!
	11:04pm Daybreak, the Human: Enjoy the seasonal Fairytale of NY w/ Pouges, but nice to hear KM in other ways. So many greats are hidden in 1 known song.
	11:04pm Daybreak, the Human: Liked Coit Tower this morning on Wake too.
	11:05pm efd: @Daybreak, I think I'm the one person who doesn't like that Pogues Xmas song, which is one reason I wanted to play a different Kirsty track tonight. Glad you're enjoying it.
	11:06pm efd: oh thanks!
	11:10pm steveL: Snapped Ankles: A:Ow! B: Cool!
	11:13pm Daybreak, the Human: Thanks efd! I’m sure there are MANY fmu listeners who actually know her catalogue and the Pogues catalogue and the many for whom x-mas music is a limited catalogue that can drive any song into the ground, who feel the same. Thanks for the broadening experience!
	11:18pm Hoboken Jack: Long neck also on the bill Friday.
	11:19pm Kat in Chicago: That Pogues Christmas song reminds me of my awful ex-husband and I hate it very much. Love Kirsty though.
	11:19pm Marc15: No bagels?
	11:21pm Kat in Chicago: No ants in my lox plz.
	11:24pm efd: only b.a.g.e.l.s.
	11:26pm Andrew S: those Sadies tickets will be sweet fop somebody.. the last time i saw them was in a desolate location and the place looked like a barn anbd it must have been minus 35 degrees it was brutal cold but it was sure warm inside and packed they are so good. Wish I could remember what the place was called it was on a country road carleton place ontario its not there anymore
	11:30pm Andrew S: speaking of bagels Montreal passed a ban on wood ovens but the citizens rose up and it looks like the existing bagel shops will be exempt. power to the people
	11:35pm steveL: This show is all over the place in the best ways! Thanks again, efd!
	11:38pm Kat in Chicago: Why did Montreal ban wood ovens?
	11:38pm Kat in Chicago: Nice to hear this Feelies track again.
	11:39pm efd: I'm guessing it was some environmental thing, because of the smoke?
	11:41pm Kat in Chicago: I figured, but it seems like that wouldn’t be that big of a contributor.
	11:43pm Kat in Chicago: I want a bagel now. With l.o.x. Hold the ants.
	11:46pm Hoboken Jack: Mercer and Barone are playing on SATURDAY at VU.
	11:52pm Kat in Chicago: Anyone here been to the Velvet Underground Experience? I found out about it late into my last visit, and it was kind of spenski so I passed. Barone and Mercer would have made it more enticing.
	11:57pm Andrew S: yeah cuz of the smoke
	11:58pm Andrew S: they werent targeting bagel shops they were collateral damage but reason won out
