Radio

Freeform, babey. All of my WFMU shows can be heard here, and some of my WPRB shows can be heard here.

WFMU

RadioActivity with Abbie from Mars airs weekly from midnight-3am on Saturday nights.

My debut on WFMU came in October 2020, when I hosted a segment on the Radio Row program. The next month I joined the staff as a fill-in, and my weekly show began in June 2021.

for your listening pleasure…

WPRB

From February 2017 to May 2020, RadioActivity with Abbie from Mars aired weekly on WPRB.

I was also the host of WPRB’s New Music Hour in the spring and fall of 2018.

In the summer of 2019, I hosted Wolfgang the Robodog weekly as a companion show to RadioActivity.

At WPRB, I also served as Program Director, Music Director, and Publicity and Promotions Director (not all at once!).

a few sample shows…
