Tessa has been at WDCV since freshman year (now a senior!) and she is currently Co-Station Manager.  She is an  Archaeology and Anthropology double major. She enjoys looking at bones, listening to music, and bunnies (the fatter the better).  Tessa’s does a joint show, Shuffle the Tangerine, with Dan Plekhov Thursdays 6-7 pm.  The two are quite happy with this civil union of soundwaves.

 

Father Time and DanDan 

Dan is Co-Station Manager and in charge of new DJ training and scheduling, but also helps out with programming. He spends his leisure time doing crosswords in space, dancing with Father Time (see image), and sitting pensively on top of mountains. He is an Archaeology and Classical Studies Major and is strictly from commercial. His show, Shuffle the Tangerine, is a civil union hyphenated program that he shares with Tessa Cicak from 6-7pm on Thursdays.

Steve is a member of the executive board and does the bidding of the all-powerful station managers.  He can often be found on or around Reed Street dividing his time between telling his fed-up friends about how awesome Bologna is, and cooking incredible food while having intelligent and often heated debates about 90s-era video games with physics majors.  Despite often colluding with the ‘hard sciences,’ he is actually a history major with a minor in political science that probably should have been a second major.  He hosts Long Nights on the Road, an emulation of flipping through radio stations out on the highway, and is tuned into by fans of genres such as Celtic folk death metal, classical harpsichord  and French poptronica.

august2012 smallMatt

Matthew is a co-head music director and also makes the funniest jokes during exec board meetings. He co-runs a literature review/comedy blog called Bad Books Good Times and plays electric ukulele. He is a double major in English and Biology and hopes this gets him somewhere in life. Using the “co-” prefix one more time, he co-hosts a show with his friend Liz known as The Time Warp: Songs From Historical Figures’ iPods, which he does a lot of fake research for.

Jake

Jake is in his second year on the executive board, and has worked mainly in public affairs. He can most commonly be found adventuring around the harsh Pennsylvanian wilderness in search of quests and plunder. During the leisure hours of the week, he can be found level grinding his current Pokemon team, wasting money on vinyl, watching cartoons, recording radical jams, and arguing with strangers on the internet. He majors in International Studies, and hopes that his blog on international politics, Wordsauce, will one day have more readers than just his grandparents. He hosts Noise Pollution, a melodic mixture of hardcore, post-rock,  indie, folk, ska and dubstep that soothes the restless and energizes the lazy.

Her show is called Jazzy Cats and her DJ name is Ryan Gosling (chosen for her killer 8-pack abs). It’s on Thursdays from 3-4.
