Mascot Wedding Back on the Air!

The Mascot Wedding show will return to the airwaves this Thursday. We’ve been off the air for four weeks due to a fire that destroyed the KOOP studio. We’ll be broadcasting out of a temporary studio graciously donated for KOOP’s use by Entercom Communications. I’m not sure of the recording options we have at the new studio (I’m going to go check it out tonight) so I don’t know at this time if the podcast will be affected. I do know that after four weeks I’m anxious to get back and start droppin’ some LOLs and taking your calls.

Once again, you can listen to the Mascot Wedding show with David and Mac, every Thursday from 3-3:30 PM CST, 91.7 FM Austin, Streaming world wide at koop.org.

Fire Hits KOOP, Mascot Wedding Off the Air

It’s true. 91.7 KOOP, the beloved home of the Mascot Wedding show, has been forced off the air due to damage caused by a fire. This is the third fire in as many years, but the first at our awesome new studio (which we relocated to because of the other fires). I don’t have any more details about the fire (except that no one was hurt), but I will say that KOOP is hard at work on a contingency plan and hopefully we’ll be back on the air very soon. So, no new shows until further notice. In the meantime, we still have three more podcasts to post, so be on the look out for those. Thanks.
