These are the playlists for the shows that I've done on CKCU. I try and update this page as the show airs, letting you know what's currently playing, but it's probably best to give me a day to get it up here with artist links and everything. If you'd like to listen to me, my show broadcasts Monday mornings, 10:00-11:30 Eastern, and can be heard in Ottawa, Canada, western Quebec and northern New York state by tuning into 93.1 FM, and it is also available worldwide via the Internet and streaming Real Audio by going to CKCU's audio page. For more recent playsheets, go here.

If you'd like to purchase anything you've heard on the show, I've created a page with links to stores that may be able to help you out.

This was a fill-in for Ethan. I had three hours to fill, and I can't believe how much stuff I wanted to play I didn't come close to getting on the air. I was going to play all of the Art Ensemble record, because tomorrow marks the 32 anniversary of the performance, but only ended up playing the second side. Tomorrow is also the first day of school at Carleton, so that's why the Cohen and "Library Pick Up" tracks were played.

Sonic Youth are in town tomorrow, Wooden Stars were a non-specific song request, and someone called me up and said "Is this Bryan of The Bryan Show [sic]?" which confused me leading to an awkward brief conversation (inquiring as to what was currently playing) which was entirely my fault in it's awkwardness. I guess I am Bryan of It's the Bryan Show! but I'd never thought about it in those terms before.
