The song itself is 57 years old. The Facebook post is a piker.

Re WMWM:
Uncle: Around Jan of this year, All of the weekend shows may now be heard on North Of Boston Radio and are archived.
We were doing shows remotely during pandemic but were told we couldn't do shows either remotely or in person. 91.7 has their
own student DJs but currently no longer streams (WE do).. (I set up a domain name for them, WMWM 91.7 Salem (wmwmsalem dot org) and they put up a bare bones site with no schedule).
We play what we want with no college interference. http://www.raccoonrollradio.com has past shows etc.
NOBR also has a stream of alternative music, shows like Salem Digest, The Moptops and The King, Boston Tackle Box etc.
We do plan to do our yearly remote from Evan's Deli in Marblehead Dec 21 at noon. I did attend a meeting last Apr at the
college union but it's pretty much over. 43 years, eh, what's that.

Bob, thanks for letting us know of North Of Boston Radio.
The Heart of Saturday Night was spectacular. American Top 40 0f this week 1969.
I'm listening to the podcast of it right now.

It's hard to tell what's offensive these days...

Nah. If it's hurtful to someone else, it's offensive. That's all you need.

Has the annual Thanksgiving tradition of playing Alice’s Restaurant finally run its course? WUMB to my knowledge only played it just before 10:30am. Other than that it was their usual music mix. As recently as last year, IIRC, they played it at 9am, Noon, and 3pm.

BIG 103 played it at noon and if I remember correctly have played it every year since they launched.

But it's not that simple. Many people misunderstand Satire.
I simply asked if stations are playing the unedited version. Many did for decades.

Films like BLAZING SADDLES are misunderstood by some who may be offended. Artistic expression becomes a slippery slope...
