This and there, here and there.

I do some writing stuff with NPR, I do some radio stuff with Spinitron, and I do a lot of other boring stuff for other companies.

New piece in The Nation arguing that we need public media more now than ever. We must defend what we have with an eye toward expanding and restructuring public media in the future.
We Must Save Public Media to Change It
We need public media more than ever—it’s too precious to let Trump defund it. But to live up to its democratic promise, we must support public media to serve our needs.

The final breakdown: 15 stories, 17 stations featured (plus 2 extra pulled in from past stories), and 21 people interviewed. And we’ve already got a few lined up for 2025! I know it’s cliched but I’m really honored to help share these stories and support put these amazing public radio alliances!
Looking at what I'm thankful for in this infuriating year and I realized that I wrote more about noncomm radio than I ever have in the 6 years I've had the privilege. 13 stories & 15 stations (+ maybe more to come) so I wanted to share them in the spirit of connecting to the new audience on Bluesky

The Offing has been transformative for countless artists and most importantly to me, has made @mimiwong.bsky.social’s and my lives so much richer. Ten years of elevating artists who deserve accolades when other parts of the industry won’t should warrant a small donation or two, don’t you think
To celebrate @theoffingmag.bsky.social’s upcoming 10-year anniversary and my 10 years volunteering at the magazine (I can’t believe it’s been that long already!), I’m trying to raise $2000. Your support will be able to take us into the next decade!

This piece of mine, my only meaningful work of erasure really, has had a long life. People write to me about it all the time. It's an erasure of a page of the application to become a naturalized US citizen; I made it in 2017 and it's feeling relevant again

A legitimately major directional factor in my life was as a teen joining a message board of a site that was focused largely around sharing media of Trunks from Dragon Ball Z, Temple O’ Trunks. The original Angelfire site is shockingly still live: www.angelfire.com/tx4/trunksdo...

Will forever remember reading this article, where Marc got Adam to hang himself with his own rope and dig deep into all his shady shit and knowing that even if we weren’t ever getting our back pay, no one would be able to be swindled by this piece of shit ever again pitchfork.com/thepitch/134...

Here’s my specific Pitchfork appreciation post: @marchogan.bsky.social was one of the only music writers to report on me and my coworkers’ lawsuit to expose Adam Klein and his crimes during his time at CMJ which at the time was a truly meaningful, validating thing at a really dark time of my life
