Who wants the FUNK? WE want the FUNK!

Join WUSB-FM this Wednesday, April 23, for a funkified dance party as several of your favorite DJs throw down on the 1!

It starts at 6:00 AM with the Hot Wax crew followed by Gavin's (Funky) Blues At Dawn at 8:00 AM.

At 10:00 AM, Wizzy's Brew will be simmering and Wizzy has a deep groove as a matter of course.

Starting at noon Mr Edison will take over with his bag of tricks as Recess goes on recess for one week. Edison will hold the fort until the arrival of Paul with some (Funky) Suburban Hymns.

We also hope to have some people in from the Port Jefferson Arts Council to talk about the movie We Want The Funk! which will have a special screening on May 4 at Selden’s Middle Country Library and which will also have the funk band Noiz playing after the screening.

So tune us in for this special day of Funk as part of WUSB-FM’s Radiothon festivities.

Wear your dancing shoes!

Terry Masear on SOUNDS OF FILM

On the SOUNDS OF FILM, we have Terry Masear, the extraordinary hummingbird rescuer at the heart of the new documentary Every Little Thing.

Directed by Sally Aitken, the film captures Masear’s lifelong dedication to rehabilitating these fragile, breathtaking creatures, offering audiences a window into a world of patience, perseverance, and quiet compassion.

With its stunning cinematography, deeply moving storytelling, and an intimate look at Masear’s work, Every Little Thing is far more than just a nature documentary—it’s an exploration of resilience, hope, and the profound connections we can forge with the tiniest creatures.

In advance of the film’s screening at the Port Jefferson Documentary Film Series, Terry Masear joins us to discuss her incredible journey, and the unexpected ways in which these tiny, high-speed birds help people heal.
