All Access - 101.5 WLCB LP-FM

01/12/2023

...and, that's a wrap.

Thank you, one and all, for an amazing three years. It truly was an honor to bring the show to you - and, perhaps, we turned you on to a few artists whose catalog you might not have been familiar with.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

Ever get the feeling that the powers that be were against you?

Well, we're forced to postpone the final episode of "All Access" again - this time, because both Christopher and Dawn are down with COVID (Dawn's second run-in with it).

Stay tuned... we have a special farewell show planned. We just have to wait a little longer to deliver it to you.

12/28/2022

Good grief, it never ends... a member of Christopher's household tested positive for COVID this morning. Out of precaution, we have postponed tonight's farewell broadcast of "All Access" for at least one week. We'll keep everyone posted here on FB when we've rescheduled the show.

12/24/2022

All good things must eventually come to an end... and, we're sorry to tell you, the rumors and constant on-air reminders are true. This upcoming Wednesday marks the final broadcast for "All Access".

There's no behind-the-scenes drama, no sordid tales, no scoffing at the powers that be. It's very simple: Christopher is wanting to put his focus on his still-developing music career. Carolyn is remaining on staff at WLCB (and Christopher will still be helping out with the automated music library), so you can't get rid of us that easily.

Please join us one last time this Wednesday, starting at 6 pm Central time, for "The Grand Finale" on "All Access". If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device "101.5 WLCB".

And, if we haven't said it enough... THANK YOU to everyone who has supported the show over the past three years. You made all this possible. This isn't "goodbye"; this is "until we see each other again".

If you've listened to the show for any period of time, you'll know it's obvious that Christopher and Carolyn are huge music fans. But, that doesn't mean they like EVERYTHING... and this Wednesday, they're stepping out of their comfort zones.

That's right, kids... this week on "All Access," we're featuring songs that make someone in the studio go into the fetal position, begging for the music to stop. They're songs that make us hit the "skip" button on the CD player faster than a caffeinated monkey... only this time, we can't skip 'em, so - for us - this is going to suck. (Meanwhile, Dawn likes damn near everything we play, so she'll be in heaven while we're being tortured... except, maybe, for one song. Chances are, you all will be enjoying the sets as well.)

Our pain is your pleasure this time around, so grab your popcorn and prepare the whips and chains, because "The Torture Chamber" is being readied for "All Access" this week! The punishment (at least for two DJs) begins at 6 pm Central time on Wednesday. If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can stream online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device "101.5 WLCB".

Tonight, "All Access" travels back in time and location to Bethel, New York in August 1969. That's right, kids... pull out your bell bottoms and patchouli oil, because we're featuring music from the original Woodstock Music And Art Festival. From Richie Havens to Jimi Hendrix, we'll try to cram as many performances from the artists who were there into two hours. (Sadly, that means we had to cut Ravi Shankar... a shame, because Christopher actually likes his music.) Even our "Are You Smarter Than A DJ" question will revolve around Woodstock.

So, tune in, turn on but don't drop out, as "All Access" pays tribute to Woodstock this evening. The fun begins tonight at 6 p.m. Central time. If you live in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app or by telling your Alexa device, "101.5 WLCB".

Tonight, "All Access" pays tribute to the life and music of Olivia Newton-John. Few artists left as big a mark on the music world in the 1970s and 1980s as she did, straddling both the country and popular music genres. As is our tradition, we'll not only touch on some of her best-known songs, but we'll dig deep into her catalog to present some tracks you might not be as familiar with.

Join us for a special episode of "All Access" tonight, beginning at 6 pm Central time. If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device "101.5 WLCB".

Tonight on "All Access," Christopher and Carolyn are most definitely kickin' it old school... as we turn back the clock to the 1970s and explore a genre of music we don't often play on this show - funk!

From songs we're certain you know (and hopefully love) to others you might be marginally familiar with, and to even others that you could be discovering for the very first time, we'll be bringing the funk home, so you can tear the roof off the sucker! (Sorry, Bootsy... your solo work didn't make the cut this time, but we wanted to feature you in some manner.)

So, grab your star bass and a refreshing beverage of your choice, because "We Got The Funk" tonight on "All Access"! The fun begins at 6 pm Central time. If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device, "101.5 WLCB".

After an unexpected week off due to car issues and repairs, "All Access" returns this week... and what a show we have for you!

For four decades, Metallica has not only paved new ground in the world of heavy metal, they've paved the road for hundreds - if not thousands - of bands who have followed in their footsteps. Through triumph and tragedy, they've released some music which will be listened to for generations to come... and we're going to take a look at some of those tracks.

From songs you know well to the occasional hidden nugget, we're going to cover all of Metallica's studio albums (with the exception of their collaboration with Lou Reed... the less said about that, the better). And, to station management... don't worry, we got the clean versions of certain songs. :-)

So, get your lighters ready to hoist into the air tonight, because "All Access" is paying tribute to Metallica! The fun starts at 6 pm Central time. If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can listen at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device, "101.5 WLCB".

Very sorry, gang, but due to car troubles here, I'm not going to be able to make it to the studio tonight, so "All Access" will not air this evening. We will return next Wednesday with our tribute to the almighty Metallica, so be sure not to miss that!

So... it's been a month of Sundays since we last posted here. (Bad social media manager! No donut!) But "All Access" is indeed back on the air after a month of COVID, travel and more COVID, and we've been hitting the ground running since we returned two weeks ago.

This week, we put on our multi-colored best as we celebrate a selection of artists who happen to be LGBTQ. Covering nearly a 60-year span, you'll hear some artists you recognize, and possibly a few that will be new to your ears.

So, get ready, because "All Access" is challenging you to "Have Some Pride" this week. The festivities begin tonight at 6 pm Central time. If you're in the Slades Corners, Wisconsin area, you can tune in at WLCB 101.5FM - Lakes Community Broadcasting. Or, you can listen online at www.lakesradio.org, via the TuneIn Radio app, or by telling your Alexa device "101.5 WLCB".

Hey, all... CT here. So, it's been a few weeks since we've been on the air with the show. First week, Dawn was sick with COVID, then I was out of the country on a business trip. We were supposed to be returning this week.

Uh, yeah... about that...

Another member of our household has tested positive for COVID. (No, not me... though I'm questioning how much longer my luck is going to run.) We cannot, in good conscience, potentially expose any of our fellow WLCB broadcasters to COVID, so we're going to be off the air again this week.

We're really sorry for the continued delays in the show's returning, but we're certain you understand the reasons. And, when we return, we'll have had plenty of time to prepare an absolutely kick-ass show! (Not that any of our shows suck...)

Thanks for your understanding... stay safe!
