This segment is brought to you by THE GIANT VACATION MAP!
Unfurl it!
Stare heroically at it!
Then point dramatically and shout:
“THERE! THAT PLACE WITH THE PALM TREES AND UNCERTAIN AIRPORT SECURITY!”
THE GIANT VACATION MAP!
Because every adventure begins with excessive finger pointing!
Let’s give this pass-on someplace to land.
Caller says this song’s been stuck in their head all day.
yeah… How Do You Mend is one of them songs.
Barry Gibb wrote it after a rough patch with his brothers, and you can hear the ache sitting right in the melody.
The Bee Gees wrote more than a few like that.
Marla’s smiling — that means another caller.
Ever notice how some lonely nights feel less lonely?
Like somewhere out there somebody’s still got the porch light on… not because they’re expecting anybody, but just in case somebody needs it.
Mm-hmm.
Needle down.
Crowds know when the tide turns.
The trouble is… nobody wants to be the first to move.
There’s a song for this.
“You better start swimmin’
or you’ll sink like a stone…”
A caller in the US suggested this.
Look forward to hearing it
Switchboard’s glowing steady.
First time this song came through the booth was when a woman called in just past midnight, said she’d been in her car outside the house for twenty minutes or so. Didn’t want to go in yet. Told me, “Play something honest.”
So I spun something that don’t take sides…
just holds the mirror steady.
Request granted
Request line.
A listener in the US calling in.
I’m listening….
Marla’s sliding another fader up.
The songwriter believes in democracy…?
This deserves a replay
Alright… spin this next stack.
🎵 Formidable — Stromae
Melancholy French
🎵 Dernière Danse — Indila
Big feels sweep
🎵 Hoppípolla — Sigur Rós

This hour is sponsored by THE HAMMOCK OF DESTINY!
Is it furniture?
A lifestyle?
A fabric portal to the majestic realm of Doing Absolutely Nothing?
YES!
So climb aboard, citizen, and let gravity cradle you like the kind arms of a sleepy titan.
THE HAMMOCK OF DESTINY!
Where heroes… horizontalize!
We’re coming up on the hour at #WINK Ink Radio.
Tonight’s signal is steadied by Static & Sons.
Three generations of tuning dials by feel, not instruction manual.
If the world gets loud…
they’ll find you a clear lane.
Note just came across the console from a listener watching rain slide down a bus window.
They say this song belongs to nights exactly like this.
Requests drifting in from every corner of the globe… little notes sliding across the console like paper airplanes.
Sit back. Relax. And dig these.

Motown glide
🎵 Didn’t Cha Know — Erykah Badu
Neo-soul reflection
