WBUR’s inaugural festival kicks off Thursday and will bring brilliant minds from across fields to Boston University’s campus. I’m excited to catch a panel on the future of reproductive rights with actress and activist Busy Philipps and the ACLU’s Jessica Weitz on Friday and a live podcast taping with Atlas Obscura co-founder Dylan Thuras and Omni Parker House historian Susan Wilson on Saturday.

Boston Calling is a beautiful celebration of local and national acts and the city’s love of music. I have only attended once, back in 2023, and I’m excited to return this year. I think music festivals are a great chance to see your favorite artists and catch bands you wouldn’t normally seek out. If you’re not planning on attending the festival, here are some other events to catch this weekend in Greater Boston, including a Black history comedy show and a creative poetry exhibition.

The members of sidebody shuffle around a small living room. Their equipment dominates the space aside from an old piano with a Joni Mitchell sheet music book and a worn couch. “This is 90.9 FM WBUR Boston, your local NPR station,” sings Martha Schnee on sidebody’s recently released single “No Commercial Enterprise.”Schnee highlights a different local radio station every time she performs the song.
