I’m hosting my 2019 WPRB Membership Drive show TONIGHT from 5-8 pm ET! Julia Factorial will be sitting in for the program as we try to exceed 79 pledges (one for each year of WPRB’s existence) in three hours. Thank you in advance for listening and I look forward to saying your name on-air this evening.

Here’s more on what you can expect…

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ONE PLACE ON THE INTERNET. 

WHAT: Jon Solomon’s 2019 Membership Drive show on 103.3 fm WPRB.

WHEN: Tonight, a/k/a Wednesday, April 24 from 5-8 pm ET.

HOW TO PLEDGE: Call 1.609.258.1033 or visit http://pledge.wprb.com

SHOULD I PLEDGE BEFORE YOUR SHOW, JON?: Not if you want me to hit my goal, no.
SHOULD I PLEDGE AFTER YOUR SHOW, JON?: Not if you want me to hit my goal, no.
SHOULD I PLEDGE *DURING* YOUR SHOW, JON?: Yes. That would be delightful. Thank you in advance.

WHAT IS THE GOAL FOR THE SHOW?: 79 unique pledges. One for each year of WPRB. You can donate as little as $1. All donations are tax deductible. If you miss this window and still pledge to WPRB during the drive that is g.r.e.a.t., but that isn’t going towards my goal.

WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER I PLEDGE?: Encourage others to do the same before time runs out! Use the hashtag #WPRB2019 to spread the word. 

WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME?: Well, you’re supporting one of the nation’s last truly independent radio stations. The community helps keep WPRB autonomous, free form and not beholden to anyone beyond the listenership. There are pins, shirts, hats and stickers galore in return. 

ANYTHING EXCLUSIVE TO YOUR SHOW I COULD WIN?: Yes!!! If you donate, you’ll be in the running for hourly prize packs available only during the show that include Jon Solomon-endorsed releases by Superchunk (including an out of print 7”), Ex Hex, Writhing Squares, The Breeders and more. Thanks to Merge, Trouble In Mind and Wild Mutation for their generosity. 

CAN YOU MAKE A HARD SELL?: This is the one week of the year that allows WPRB’s other 51 weeks of commercial free, creative programming to exist. If I’ve played music on the air from your band or your label, if you’ve been a guest on my show, if I’ve played records that became favorites of yours through the program, if I’ve made your Christmas more enjoyable the past 30 years, then I trust you’ll give back tonight.

 I’m counting on you, and so is WPRB. 

Pledge.
