FFFoxy Podcast #173: James Toth feature
On this installment of the podcast, I’ll be digging into the work of James Toth, who’s perhaps best known to most listeners out there for the music that he has created under the name Wooden Wand. With a vast discography that stretches beyond that moniker and back into the mid-’90s, Toth emerged from the U.S.…

FFFoxy Podcast #167
I’ve got a lot of great music to play for you on this installment, both new and old. I should note upfront that due to limited access to the radio station’s studios, I’m continuing to produce the podcast show from home for the foreseeable future, so apologies if the sound has been a little wonky…
FFFoxy Podcast #166
On this installment of the podcast, I tried to get caught-up with a bunch of mostly newer releases that arrived over the summer months. A few of these have found their way into the weekly Free Form Freakout radio show playlists, but I wanted to spotlight them here on the podcast, too. This show is…
