Radio WTAF Request Line - Time Hard

Ariel Baddass on the air and taking your requests

May 30, 2025

Hey boys and girls, cats and kitties, all the ships and clippers at sea. This is Ariel B spinning platters of various sizes, though we always defer to vinyl whenever possible.

We’ve been focused on playing your requests, but sometimes your faithful DJ just has to take the old tonearm into her own hands and lay something on you that you might not know but are sure to request regularly once it gets into your system.

With such a vast quantity of  shit hitting so many fans, the Paying Attention news, entertainment and dire warning crew is doing everything they can to stay on top of the mountain of hourly disasters that is the current state of affairs. As I watch them stagger around our non-existent secret undisclosed location, it’s clear they need a little cheering up, a musical interlude if you will.

Here’s a catchy ditty, a little-known classic we know you’re gonna love. This one’s for me and the gang at Paying Attention™. And for you, the discerning public, yearning to breathe free. It’s one of our favorites, and really, pretty much the theme song around the office these days. I dare say there is no other song that so accurately, succinctly and pleasantly sums up our current situation.

Enjoy.

The Pioneers - Time Hard (1972)
