It's the 34th Episode, folks! Here's some fun facts about the #34: There are 34 islands in the Mediterranean! The element selenium has an atomic number of 34! The number "200" appears 34 times in the bible! I know- crazy, right? Also this week, I interviewed hosts of political talk show, "La Conversacion," right here at KUCI, Sebastian Silva and Isaac Ceja. It was a hoot!

Episode 33: Richard Dulay

Talk about a milestone! The show's first ever guest, Richard Dulay, makes his triumphant return to promote his new track, "Fears 2.0," and teases an upcoming album. Pretty exciting stuff, right? We talked about the inspiration for this new track, the pros and cons of being an artist in the era of COVID, and also the illuminati. But mostly the first two things. Remember to follow Richard on Soundcloud at DBAR and YouTube at DBAR Music! Link to "Fears 2.0": https://soundcloud.com/dontbearichard/dbar-fears-20

Episode 32: More like NO-vid 19, amiright???

Covid? I hardly KNOW Vid! HEYOOOOOO! AND WE ARE BACK, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Station shut down for a few weeks in light of recent developments and is technically still closed to all DJ's BUT at least I've got Zoom and my handy-dandy portable microphone, so the show will continue to go on, baybeh. Also sorry for making those "coronavirus survival tips" jokes on the show a few episodes ago. Gotta eat some crow on that. Guess this was just a bit more serious than I initially anticipated. Whoopsie-daisy. Regardless, enjoy the return of "Half Past Five"!

Episode 30: Lucas Hilderbrand

Awwwwwww yeah bruddah, it's Episode 30!!! To ring in this special occasion, I sat down with UCI Professor and Media Historian, Lucas Hilderbrand. We discussed his book, "Inherent Vice: Bootleg Histories of Videotape and Copyright," which covers the broader effects of the specific focus of bootleg home-video and the first "renaissance" of sorts of the pornography in the '70s and '80s. Enjoy, people!
