Pardon My Dust - On KFAI

How radio is and is not done. Tuesdays at 10am on KFAI 90.3 FM Minneapolis. Steaming all over the world at KFAI × org.

From the passenger seat of an El Dorado to the docks at Marina Del Rey, Cruise Control is your weekly ride to the smoother side. Mason Butler brings a dusty vinyl mix of classic jazz funk, sunset disco, soft rock (call it Yacht if you must) and soul to KFAI's airwaves every Tuesday at midnight (that's 11:59pm Monday for those with meridian confusions.) Reachable in international waters at kfai.org or on Twin Cities FM at 90.3 or 106.7. All shows archived at kfai.org for two weeks before docking at https://archive.org/details/
