Listen to last week’s episode: Year One MailbagAlright — I’m wrapping up the unsolicited Year One Festivities with a mega playlist that follows the wild ride we’ve been on this past year. I’ll probably keep adding to it, but for now, this 8-hour playlist feels like it captures the vibe of the show’s first year: disorganized, nonlinear, and packed with the best music in the world. Also, huge thanks to everyone who came out to my show last week in Brooklyn.

Listen to last week’s episode: Year One Blowout ShowIn last week’s episode I closed with a bit of classical piano music by Strauss and joked about how I worry it bores people when I play that stuff on the show. But, to my delight, many people wrote to me saying how much they love it and many mentioned how much they’ve enjoyed the solo classical piano playlist I shared a few months ago. So, for this week, I’ve extended and enhanced that playlist and, I gotta say, this thing is incredible. Honestly.

Listen to last week’s Walter Martin Radio Hour episode 41: Cheesy Music & Guity PleasuresHi there—I guess my only worry with this playlist is that people might end up listening to it more than the other playlists I put together. It’s kind of like sneaking candy into the middle of a carefully prepared meal. So yes, feel free to enjoy these sweets this week—but don’t forget to brush your teeth and rinse out your mouth. We’ll be returning to our regularly scheduled programming next week.

Listen to last week’s Walter Martin Radio Hour: Pop Radio Part IIHi - We had incredible weather this past weekend and I went kinda crazy with the old Jamaican records. Lots of gardening, lots of fantastic Jamaican music and the occasional daytime beer. Anyway, I realized I’m gonna need a long playlist for the summer so I made one. I’ll be adding to this playlist a lot in the next few months but here’s 3hrs of stuff to get us rolling.

The full episode is for paid subscribers onlyOk I didn’t quite get my fill when I did my recent pop radio episode Ok Let’s Talk About Pop Radio so this shorter special episode picks up where that one left off. This time we mostly go though stuff from the past couple years and look at the current 2025 crop of pop.

Listen to last week’s Walter Martin Radio Hour: HappinessNow on Tidal, Apple and Spotify!I love this damn playlist. Every song makes me happy but nothing is too sweet or annoying. There’s stuff from all over the place: New Orleans, Scotland, New York, Texas, Mexico, Germany, Jamaica, Detroit and Brazil. Every song from last episode plus lots more. If you’re having a springtime party or just want something joyful and warm to throw on, I think this should do the trick.
