WXPN is a radio station of the University of Pennsylvania. This statement is a bit ambiguous; they're not a "college radio station", in that they're not student-run, but rather a professionally-run, public (i. e. non-commercial, and every so often they come on the air and beg for money) radio station. WQHS is the student radio station. I've been working from home this week, since it's our Spring Break, so I've been listening a lot.
Every weekday morning at nine they have a "select-a-set": listeners call or e-mail and suggest three songs, which are perhaps somehow related. Somebody suggested the following three songs today, which got played:
Sarah McLachlan, Circle
Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, Circle
Joni Mitchell, Circle Games
Why? (Hint: the select-a-set feature does not exist on Saturdays.)

Happy Pi Day!
(though I prefer June 22; it doesn't make sense to use decimal...)
Ugh, off by one. That's what I get for being a smartass.
It's that damn time again...
And where were you on Wednesday? :P
I don't get it. Why would someone pick Sarah McLachlan over Soul Coughing?
_lf, using Gregorian calendar makes even less sense to me. ;-P
I know that this is off topic but I am host of a mathematics podcast
Combinations
and Permutations that I think that your readership may find
interesting. On the last episode we have covered the four color theorem and some new ideas for mathematical journals. You can find the podcast on iTunes or through our host. Give us a listen, you
will not be disappointed
