💥SHOW SPOTLIGHT💥 “Our goal each episode is to have fun, be unhinged, and bless the radio airwaves!”
Looking for a good laugh, perhaps a giggle or two? Tune in to Long Distance and immerse yourself in DJ Hannah and DJ Gas Break Dip’s unique comedy and unfiltered friendship! “Long Distance is our baby that started because we noticed our natural banter was banger and needed to be converted to a show,” says the two DJs.
Each week, DJ Hannah and DJ Gas Break Dip pick a “loose theme” and dive into it for an hour, inviting an array of exciting guests into the booth to join their famed chats. “Every episode, we’re completely unhinged and speak our truth in our many MANY experiences at UCLA,” they say. The show is for anyone looking for a good time, but is also “mainly catered to POC.”
Make sure to check out their Instagram, @longdistance_edu (“It’s a work of art,” they promise). And set your alarms for Tuesdays at 4pm to catch up with the final season of Long Distance! In the wise words of DJ Hannah and DJ Gas Break Dip: “Trust us, just tune in. You won’t regret it.”

💫SHOW SPOTLIGHT💫 “Our show is for every Bruin and Beyond. Translation: You!”
Have you ever wanted to understand the widening, “wonderful world of Brazilian music”? Well look no further! Let DJ Mr. Kevin and DJ Epoxide do it for you in their show Brasil Não!
Every week, they dive into a different Brazilian-born genre with an emphasis on investigating and presenting “insight into the historical and cultural contexts of each song.”
Despite the focus on such a specific and rather tropical niche, Kevin and Garrett believe that their show is for anyone, anywhere, doing anything. They encourage new listeners to tune in to their “fun” and “easy-listening” show for “your homework! MAE183, Chem 113A, PoliSci99, Comp Sci 33, Geog7, cooking, knitting, (or) PREGAME!”
Tune in every Monday at 9pm for your deep dive into the depths of music from South America’s largest country (Brazil). Look out for their Instagram takeover on Thursday, May 19th and “Listen Não!”

✨SHOW HIGHLIGHT✨”It's meant to break your heart and put it back together.”
Puppy Luv is a show rooted in and influenced by soul music, playing “music from the heart and soul, music about life and love and
sometimes loss.” DJ Doggie Dog rarely talks, but instead gently guides her listeners through a carefully curated mix of “jazz, R&B, soul music, blues, and contemporary takes on all those genres.”
DJ Doggie Dog encourages her listeners to go about their daily routines and chores as they tune into her radio hour. She says, “My show is for cooks, dancers, readers, friend groups, bed room cleaners, skin care routiners and those who are bored.” At the end of the day, Puppy Luv is for everyone!
So, if you’re looking for a chill hour of “something new and wonderful,” but nothing too “quiet and boring,” make sure to check out Puppy Luv every Monday at 8pm. You might even find your new favorite song :)
