This week, for valentine's day, we celebrate with the music of love. In those early stages of love, where you suddenly notice that the birds are singing, where the flowers seem to have become more fragrant, when you lose your appetite, music can be incredibly powerful. There's that song that just connects right with your heart in a way that leaves you in no doubt that its composer must have been thinking of your situation when it was written.

There are songs of love that isn't shared, where the person of your dreams doesn't know you exist.

It just so happens that the next Mosen Explosion will be aired on Valentine's day. We'll be dispensing with the wacky news and the history to bring you four hours of fantastic love songs, and I'd love it if you were involved in choosing what we play.

Whether the person that haunts your dreams has been with you for 6 months or 60 years, whether they're by your side or far away, love is something to celebrate and cherish.

Once again, Super Bowl Sunday has rolled around, and I'd just like to say, go Yankees!

Whether you intend watching the game for the sport, the ads, the half-time entertainment or you're going to skip the thing altogether, the Mosen Explosion is here ahead of time to get you warmed up for whatever comes next.

I'll be playing a few songs about both states competing for the ultimate prize in StopStart, and if you have any favourite songs about either state, get them into me via email, Twitter, and of course on the Mosen Line at 206-600-5486 which you can call any time.

Sadly, Brian Dalton is away this weekend, so he can't welcome you to it. He sent a note though. Anne Cosgrove is out of the zone this week, and she also sent a note.

What to do, what to do. Desperate times call for desperate measures, so Mushroom FM in much desperation announces a four hour weekend welcoming, exploding zone.

When the Mosen Explosion is heard in the US, UK and lots of other places, it will be 31 January. 31 January? I mean like, dude! That is like totally last month! It'll be February in New Zealand by then, so we look forward to exploding you into next month with four fun hours.
I'm out of minimalist vacation mode now, so the wacky news is back, and there's even a banana report. Bonnie will be here with her bulletin. Musically, it's wide open this week, after a series of tribute shows in January.

Hi everyone, we always enjoy pushing the boundaries and doing some cool new things for our new year event. This year, for those of you who'd like to see as well as hear the party, we'll be offering it as a video stream on Live Stream. The audio will be the same as you hear on Mushroom FM, except that it is in mono, so if you don't need the audio, you'll still get a much better experience on Mushroom FM itself.

Whew! That 2015 galloped past in a flash, didn't it? I mean totally, like, whew!

Now it's time to say farewell to 2015, and ring in the new year, with all its potential for renewal.

When it's 2 p.m. Eastern US time, 7 p.m. in the UK on Christmas Day, Christmas will be over in New Zealand. It will be Boxing Day. So the cool thing is that the Mosen explosion Christmas special gives me a chance to make Christmas last just a little bit longer in New Zealand. .

Hi everyone. This is Jonathan Mosen, with an update from your busy Mushroom FM countdown crew.

Mushroom FM's 2015 holiday countdown and Christmas party is not far away! We'll be counting down the top 100 holiday songs as chosen by you from 9 a.m. Eastern time on Sunday morning, that's 2 p.m. in the UK.

While we all enjoy the festive tunes, our virtual online Christmas party puts those who have voted in the countdown at Christmas tables, named after the reindeer in our 2015 Christmas single 'Twas the night before Christmas.
