Tune into The Dusty Attic every Monday on Mushroom Escape. It is the program on which we feature the golden age of radio. It is heard at midnight, 4AM, 8AM, noon, 4PM and 8PM Eastern Time.

Hello again! Sara Hillis here to let you know that Come by the Hills won't be live on Sunday night, but will instead be revisiting our Spirit of the West special, originally aired on November 24, 2019, in which we honoured this great Canadian band and their lead singer John Mann, who died on November 20, 2019, due to early-onset Alzheimer's Disease. He wrote provocative songs and was not afraid to have an opinion, and oh yes, his music was often tinged with that lovely Celtic sound.

Affter you've enjoyed Mushroom FM's tech magazine show, Mosen At Large, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 to 05:00, during which I hope all your tech questions get answered, don't touch that dial and join me in The Early Years where and when you'll enjoy the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.

This week on the Doo-wop Corner we will be playing songs from the 50's and 60's, songs by Neil Sedaka one of the most prolific song writers of our time. We will be answering your emails and sending out your dedications. Sunday 6 to 8 PM. Et and repeated on Saturday 4 to 6 Am. Et for our friends in the UK. It promises to be intertaining and fun.

G'day everyone.

This week on Damo's All Day Breakfast we're talking about Meatloaf, and no, I don't mean the famous singer who sung "I would do anything for love but I won't do that", or, as I used to sing when I was a kid "I could eat anything for lunch, but I won't eat that". I've always wanted to try making smoked meatloaf in the smoker, but have never quite gotten around to it, until this week. So, I thought I'd bring you along for the ride as we give this recipe a try.

As always there's also a great mix of music, comedy, and friendly chat.

From this Saturday at 2am Eastern, that’s 6pm Saturday in NZ, 4pm in Sydney and 7am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movie Hitchcock from 2012.
Hitchcock is a 2012 American biographical drama film directed by Sacha Gervasi, based on Stephen Rebello's non-fiction book Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho.

Kia ora everyone. I’m so looking forward to us all getting together again for the next Mosen At Large.

The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.

Hello! Sara Hillis here once again to tell you that come by the Hills is back for another three hours of amazing Folk and Celtic music this week. Now, some of you may be asking: "Where did she get the name 'come by the Hills anyway?' Is it a play on her name perhaps?" Well, no. It has nothing to do with my name at all, but it is the title of a song which may be about Ireland or about Scotland. There is some controversy here, and I take no side--well, not really.

This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the beautiful baritone of Roger Whittaker. We here of his life in Kenya and the UK, some sad experiences of his parents, and how they shaped his life. We leave old Durham Town, fly with the Mistrel, and wake to a new day in the morning.

Listen at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Alternatively try 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is a far more civilised 8 PM in Eastern Australia.
