The Fourth Pandemiversary is nigh - but it sure feels like COVID-19 is here forever. So this week's Phoole & the Gang show is just about hurtling past another Pandemiversary with good music and good friends! 🦠 It’s hard on the heart to stay #COVIDSmart in the world today. 😷 Make a PhooleOut Shelter wherever you are, and revive yourself with 2 hours of life-giving tunes with music friends from around the world.

There are TWO MORE as-yet-unreleased Skeewiff cuts from their new album, for example, and, holy crap, they are delightful. And my new favorite television program TED LASSO reminded me about house music from the 2010s, and how powerfully it slaps to this day, so there's some 2010s crate-diggery and boomphy beats for money-maker-shaking behavio(u)r. Some RISKS were taken by artists right around then, in the four-on-the-floor dance music world, and I want to play them and dance with you across time zones and miles.
If you are still fighting the daily battle to stay COVID-smart, please know you're not alone. Reddit may shortly perish, but while it persists, its ZeroCovidCommunity (https://www.reddit.com/r/ZeroCovidCommunity/) and CollapseSupport (https://www.reddit.com/r/CollapseSupport/) communities are sustaining. Hopefully they port their populations over to Lemmy before Reddit goes the way of all the other corporate platforms.
Did you miss last week's show? Or do you miss it now? It was nice! Here is a speed-through preview of just a few of the great 80s requests we cleaned up during Show Number 471.
Rewind it and simply HUNDREDS of other past shows at phoole.com/rewind any time you want to. It's OK! I rewind the show all the time. The music-only versions are basically mixtapes you can use to power your heart. We need heart-power in this world.
