WREK Bootleg Podcast Feeds

| 2 min read

WREK 91.1 FM logo WREK - the Georgia Tech student FM station at 91.1 FM in Atlanta - has had podcast feeds almost as long as there have been podcast feeds. One week after I started my podcast, I wrote a script to generate some RSS feeds for some of their programs. These were the ongoing Subgenius programs The Hour of Slack and Bob's Slacktime Funhouse as well as the now defunct programs The Desoto Hour and Personality Crisis. The reason for this was simple - I wanted to subscribe to them.

To be clear, these feeds have always been a bootleg proposition. I once offered the station to take control of them and they made it clear they wanted nothing to do with them. I suspect it is because their music license is for streaming and not on-demand or some other legal ambiguity. I didn't ask. Because they offer a rolling archive of the previous week's programming, it was not challenging. I'm just writing the thinnest layer that points to their own resources and that's that.

Recently I did the first gardening of the feeds in a long time. I removed the defunct shows, I adjusted formats to schedule changes and added in some missing formats like jazz and rock. In an effort to keep all this information together and accessible, below is a list of everything with a podcast feed. If you as a listener want a specialty show or format not listed, email me at dave@daveslusher.com and I will see what I can do.
