This week, Destinies salutes the release of Kraven the Hunter and makes a final trip to the I-Con 31 Cabaret. Tune in Friday night as Peter Parker attends the funeral of his friend Ned Leeds, while Mary Jane Watson reflects on her relationship with Peter—and his confession that he is Spider-Man.

The Destinies Audiobook Sampler and Destinies Radio Theater join forces for part two of Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt, adapted by Graphic Audio from Neil Kleid's novelization.

Next, journey back to the Stony Brook Student Activities Center auditorium, where comedy rap artist Devo Spice delivers his songs "Half-Assed Rapper" and "Earworm" during the closing act of the I-Con 31 Cabaret.

Catch it all on Friday, December 13th, at 11:30 PM.

Hosted by Howard Margolin. Destinies—The Voice of Science Fiction.

Tune in Wednesday, Dec. 4, at 8 p.m. as “Davie Jones Locker” host Steve Kreitzer interviews classical pianist Harriet Stubbs about the release of her new album, Living on Mars, produced by Mike Garson, a longtime band member for David Bowie.

The album features a repertoire ranging from Bach to Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and has reached nearly half a million streams.

Harriet began playing piano at the age of 3, and by 5, she earned a full scholarship to the prestigious Guildhall School of Music. She was voted one of Britain’s top three pianists by Julian Lloyd Webber on ITV’s Britain’s Brilliant Prodigies. Her debut album, Heaven and Hell: The Doors of Perception, was produced by multi-Grammy-winning producer Russ Titelman (known for working with Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, and Cyndi Lauper, among others) and features a spoken-word performance by Marianne Faithfull.

This Saturday night at midnight (Sunday, 12:00 AM), Melting World brings you an extended journey through sound, celebrating the legendary Soft Machine. We’ll spin tracks from their 1973 classic Third, the electrifying Live in Switzerland (1974), and their 2023 release, Open Door.

During the Cosmic Hour, experience the full soundtrack to Riddles of the Sphinx, a rare gem composed by Soft Machine keyboardist Mike Ratledge.

We’ll also honor the memory of Pete Sinfield—acclaimed poet, songwriter, and co-founder of King Crimson—with a set from the band’s historic first U.S. tour, recorded live at San Francisco’s Fillmore West in 1969.

Don’t miss this five-hour odyssey of music and remembrance. Tune in this Sunday (Saturday night) from Midnight to 5 AM, only on WUSB 90.1 FM or stream online at wusb.fm.

Menage a Trois sits down for a conversation with British indie legends and sudden internet darlings Bôa, where they talk about anime, inpromptu diamond heists and having to beg people to come to your live shows. And also, to a lesser extent, their lineage from 90s funk jam band to newly reformed reunion where they're now more popular than ever.

Catch it live at midnight on November 30th, or check it out on Spotify in the coming week (We promise this time!).
