last week, my friends at Summit Series hosted their annual get together in Lake Tahoe with 650 leaders in business, philanthropy, science, technology and the arts for four days. As part of it, they took over a local radio station, 88.1, rebranded it KSQR, and invited me to host a one hour special.

here’s my hourlong radio special — the rare instance in which my voice appears on a recording, and where I talk about pairs of my favorites of 2011 in a couple categories: new artists, songs to hear when I’m out, mashups, hip hop tracks about love lost, hip hop songs that elicit strong emotional responses, songs that sample the beatles, and a few of my own tracks sprinkled in there. special thanks to my friend anneke for making it happen.

download it, put it on your iPod, take it on a walk/subway/bus ride. let me know what you thought (@wtwht) or spread the word — thanks for checking it out, team.
