A quick reminder to all that Bomb Shelter Radio will be on the air tonight starting at 8PM Eastern Time (00:00 UTC/Zulu). You can grab the link to listen at http://bomb.shelter.radio.am/

You should also consider joining our slack chatroom so you can chat with the DJ, the station staff, and the rest of our amazing listeners! You can grab an invite from http://bomb.shelter.radio.am/ and the instance is known as bombshelterradio.

Last week's winner of Cthulhu Dice was Grayhawk, who won two "Never Give Up! Never Surrender!" wristbands. Congratulations on being the only sane player at the end of the game!


Finally, here is a fascinating article about missing cubes of uranium, beer, nuclear fission, Nazis, potatoes, chandeliers, and the University of Maryland... Daily Mail - Hunt for Hilter's missing uranium: Physicist reconstructs Nazi attempts to build nuclear reactor after being sent a mysterious cube of 1940s German uranium. But where are the hundreds of other ones?

I hope you can join us this evening!

Getting ready for our first show

Good day! Tomorrow at 8PM US/Eastern time is our first show of the new season. Here are a few reminders on things you should consider doing in preparation to enjoy the show. The primary place for station news, schedules and information is the website  http://bomb.shelter.radio.am/ and the blog  https://bsr-rants.blogspot.com/ . During the show our listeners, DJs, and station administration folks gather in a "chat room" on slack. Join us on slack at https://bombshelterradio.slack.com/ . If you need at invite to the slack instance, click here . Make sure you have a music client that can read an Icecast mp3 stream (M3U filetype). The VLC Media Player is an excellent choice if you don't already have something installed. The server is located at  http://bombshelternewsroom.com:8000/ . WinAmp and iTunes also work well.  We play the game Cthulhu Dice in the slack instance during most broadcasts. You can find the rules on the Stev

What will you use to listen to BSR?

So, in about seven days BSR will be back on the air. For some folks, connecting to BSR will be old hat. The server is in the same location it was during our last million broadcasts, and they already have a streaming application they are familiar with. For others, this may be a new experience (and if so, welcome aboard!) or they need a refresher. Rather than try a one size fits all tutorial just yet, I figured I would start with some basic questions. What listening tool would you like to use? (e.g. iTunes) What operating system are you on?
