New CD Friday
Friday, 9 to 10 am
The show is, well, just what it sounds like! Your host Brian finds a selection of about five new CDs and plays a few tracks off of each, just enough to give you a feel for the CD as a whole. The music varies for every show, but mostly focuses on indie, local music, and any band that has a show coming up in the DFW area. Brian also passes along great information about the CD, the artist, and the individual songs. Check out the New CD Friday section of our webpage for more information about the CDs that have been featured on past shows.

The Good Show

Keep in touch with KTCU’s award-winning magical mystery tour known as The Good Show and your modest-yet-devastatingly-handsome hosts, Tom Urquhart and Chris Bellomy, with friends Tony Diaz and Neil Schnell, and cameos from a cast of thousands of established and up-and-coming Texas artists.
The show features the latest in modern rock including the occasional deep cut, classic cut or something completely off the programming map. There’s an added dose of original music, rock and otherwise, from Texas and surrounding areas. Regional artists are also highlighted with regular in-studio visits and performances, often debuting formerly unreleased material. The Good Show’s playlist is updated in real-time during the broadcasts on the show’s official site.
Comments and song requests are encouraged on the playlist blog in addition to using KTCU’s request phone line.

Sputnik
Saturday, 12 to 4 pm
Like the 1957 Soviet satellite of the same name, KTCU's award-winning radio show and Saturday staple "Sputnik" is spherical, pointy in parts, and takes about 98 minutes to orbit the Earth on it's elliptical path. This Sputnik sends far more than just beeps back to earth, though—it's playlists boast the latest and best indie rock, unreleased tracks, and tunes from DFW's burgeoning independent music scene, along with requests and hourly updates of local happenings. Tune in to Sputnik each Saturday afternoon and enjoy as your host DJ Janice navigates the musical cosmos to bring you songs and information that you won't hear anywhere else but The Choice.

The Black Box
Saturday, 10 pm to 1 am
We found this box behind a chair in a recording booth one afternoon. Someone tapped on it and it started buzzing. We taped a transducer to the side and plugged it into the board once, but it just started hurling verbal abuse at us and trying to blow our speakers. Listen at your own risk. If you survive, you can friend The Black Box on Facebook.

Fanboy Radio (FbR) is a radio talk show about the comic book industry, its art, creators, and fans.

The world of Indie comics and creators, as well as animation, TV, and film, are also well represented in the FbR show archives.
Consistently breaking, celebrating, and poking fun at the geeky FANBOY stereotype is a staple of the show. From the most die hard fan to the newest of the new...all are welcome. Casual... loose... smart... fun... this is not your father's comic talk show!

Dale Gleitz: Rock Menagerie
Sunday, 7 to 9 pm
The Rock Menagerie (Sunday 7pm-9pm) has evolved from its beginnings as an outlet for album tracks to theme-based programming, i.e. each week's music shares a common bond. Past highlights include the annual Halloween Special and the nights where the songs were about dogs, Hollywood or Mother's Day.
The music featured on the Rock Menagerie is generally up tempo rock-and-roll songs from 1964 to present, all selected by host Dale Gleitz. The play list includes all genres of rock and roll. On a given Sunday night, you might hear several of these musical classifications: heavy metal, jazz fusion, bubble gum, new wave, stadium rock, novelty songs, comedy bits, country rock, psychedelic, etc.
As the only locally produced weekly rock and roll archive show in Fort Worth, the Rock Menagerie airs a much wider variety of rock-and-roll than offered anywhere else. More than 13,000 song titles have been aired as of January 2006, easily the best value in rock and roll variety in the Metroplex.
