My Radio Show!!

One of my favorite parts of college is hosting my radio show, Electric Relaxation. Music is constantly on my mind—from the moment I wake up to when I turn off my lamp at night. Whether you're a friend I've talked into the ground about some obscure album or someone I bombard with song recommendations, music is the vessel I use to navigate this chaotic world. In both my darkest and brightest moments, it's my shelter from the storm. Some days that means crying to Jeff Buckley; other days, it's rapping along to A Tribe Called Quest. It all depends on the mood. And maybe the weather.

Episodes

3/17/25

After a spring break roadtrip through the gut of the South to New Orleans, I was eager into music both about and from The Big Easy.

Later on, a little soul never hurt nobody, and it felt right in the moment.

3/31/25

Going into detail on two of my favorite artists: Mac Demarco and Grateful Dead. What aspects do they share? How do they differ? Is there a correlation between cigarettes smoked and musical fame?

4/7/25

On a rainy spring day, I stitch together a rather sporadic medley of tunes to warm up from alternative Hip-Hop to Grunge. Later on, I highlight some of my favorite female artists in the music scene from both the present and past.

9/21/25

There are about 50,000 students at Penn State University Park. Downtown, there streets are lined with dozens of bars, restaurants, and venues where students, professors, and locals come together over food, drinks, and live music. Naturally, this leads to an influx of performers looking to claim their own turf in this crowded scene. The question is: how do you make people stop and listen?

For Little Blue and the Stargazers, a student quartet now entering their second year together, it's all about staying true to themselves. From Norah Jones to Stevie Wonder to Wes Montgomery, they lean into this range to shape a sound that mixes warmth, grooves, and soul.

12/11/25

On a windy winter day, Max, Paul, and Carolyn of Little Blue and the Stargazers join me in the HUB to talk tunes and promote their upcoming show at Manny's Performance Space today, December 12th 2025! We talk about Joni Mitchell, Derek Trucks, breakfast foods, and more.

1/27/26

Jazz and Bluegrass: two of America's most distinct and classic art forms. How do they differ? How are they similar? How have the genres evolved over time? Lets find out and listen to some good music, shall we?

2/26/26

What is the state of country music in America? How has it evolved since its heyday in the 1960s? Here I play some classic country tunes and compare them to some modern country artists. There's certainly new twists, but the message still rings true.

Ava Platcher Interview

An exclusive interview on The Lion 90.7 with Ava Platcher---a third-year student at Penn State operating at the crossroads of artistry and programming with grace and determination. We go over her new single, i hope to forget [available on streaming], her musical influences and spotlight Mojo Fest: a music festival featuring homegrown music and art at Tussey Mountain on April 18th.

Geese Hour (and a half)

Geese has taken the world by storm in recent months. More than almost any contemporary band, Geese has their hands (and wings) nailed down on the pulse of the zeitgeist. Whether from witty commentary on late-stage capitalism or cut throat grunge, they are simply provocative.

Songs Not By Kanye West

In light of Kanye West's new album and tour, this week I highlighted all of the wonderful music that is not by him. There is a lot to choose from.

Spring Grooves

As the flowers start to groove, I spin some tracks both funky and somber to accompany any spring day.
