I've mentioned Whole Wheat Radio before (and I will probably mention it again). Here is a blog post that captures the listener experience of an early WheatHead. And then go listen!

A Year of Staying Regular with Wheat

I feel lucky to be in the regular company of artists such as Voice of Golden Eagle, Ellen Thompson, The Farmer's Wife, with 3 Blind Mice and Pretending to Work, of Violet Edge. I have learned a few Dutch phrases from Jeroen (Ik houd van voetbal, but I twisted my eikel!). I have started a webpage, refreshing my HTML skills, and recently through the inspiration of people like J-Walk, Lalo, eyeno, Phil and others, I found amazing corners of the internet that I never knew existed, and I even started my own blog, for which I had to learn another skill - CSS. I was also introduced to other quality broadcasts run by other listeners, such as Gordy and Zoe at Testing Testing, Roxx and Splash and Cotolo at Cotolo Chronicles. I have also learned that the internet isn't only for hackers, file sharers and porn-seekers. There are some very genuine and honest people out there, and I have made some friends in Louie, fine-line, Mozie, Fred, and numerous others, and I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to open my door to any of them if they were in need or just passing through my area.

I can (and will) rave about the resource that Jim and Esther have provided for us, at their own cost and by their own desires. I want to thank them publicly for all of their hard work that they have put into creating and maintaining this community. It has quite literally saved me a couple of times. I don't think that I could have made it through eight months in that mail room without the constant companionship of my Whole Wheat Radio friends, and I have depended on the afternoon antics of the Rants-N-Raves for a daily break from my monotonous work. Someday, Jim and Esther will decide to move on and do something else, and that will be ok, because I have appreciated this experience, but meanwhile I am enjoying the company.
