The WFMU 24 Hour Short Fall Marathon has begun!

Please help us continue to broadcast on WFMU!
Our 24-Hour Marathon starts TONIGHT, Tuesday Nov 17th at 7pm and runs until
Wednesday November 18th at 7pm!**
We’re setting aside our pride to interrupt programming this Fall for our
first, and hopefully last, 24-hour
Marathon http://www.wfmu.org/marathon/index.shtml .

Our coffers are empty thanks to the combined evil forces of the recession
and WFMU falling short of our March Marathon goal. Help us raise enough
money in 24 hours to stay on the air through the winter months!
We’ve got an *action-packed 24-hours* planned, including *co-host
madness* http://wfmu.org/marathon/schedule.shtml ,

on-air *prize drawings*, and all of the *fun-loving insanity* and surprises
you’ve come to expect from WFMU Marathons. Check out our new *Radio Bear
t-shirt https://www.wfmu.org/marathon/tch.shtml#pr100 *, as well as a fresh
batch of *DJ Premiums* by *Tom Scharpling, Terre T, Evan “Funk” Davies,
Marty McSorley, Ken, Maria Levitsky, and Seven Second Delay* that are up for
the taking. Visit our pledge page
