December 17, 2019Finalé
This is the final broadcast of Radical Advice as I move on to other kinds of audio work at the station and put this particular project to rest. It seemed like a good idea to focus on the incredible community that is BFF.fm by talking with DJ's who have become part of my support system, both creatively and emotionally.
Thank you for listening and participating. Every broadcast from the past 2.5 years is available in the archives to revisit. But you're allowed to feel sad that the show is gone. I know I am. Along with feeling relief.
Since June 2017, this show has
- done 118 Broadcasts
- brought on 86 Unique Guests
- answered ~208 life questions
I'm proud of the work and grateful to you and the BFF.fm community.
On that note, be sure to check out the shows of today's guests (bonus - these are also shows I occasionally guest on).
Sasha: Boy With Girl's Name Morning Mixtape Tuesdays 8-10am PST
Ben: No Magic Radio Tuesdays 8-10pm PST
Beatrix: Astral Projection Radio Hour Tuesdays 4-6pm PST
And you can always support the station by going to BFF.fm/donate.
Much love,
Lily

October 29, 2019Satan Loves Therapy
This broadcast might convert you to Satanism and that's ok. Meant to subvert arbitrary authority and help people get in touch with their inner wisdom, Satanism is very compatible with psychotherapy and activism.
My interview with therapist, martial artist, and Satanist 😈 Yeldar Zhurgenov is interspersed with a spooky, moody Halloween playlist made for feeling all the feelings and getting in touch with your shadow.
