We Own This Town

Demystifying Radio with Celia Gregory and Morse Code

Michael Eades | Posted Thu March 20, 2025

Korby Lenker‘s podcast Morse Code has been regularly interviewing musicians and creators since 2023. There’s a long list of episodes worth listening to but one recent release is with WNXP DJ Celia Gregory. They talk about how music programming breeds local culture, the history of (and the people of) the station and the human-powered choices behind their musical selections. There’s more insight about the episode in the official writeup. It’s all insightful and delightful.

You can subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and all the other regular spots. Follow Lenker on Instagram @korbykorby. Follow WNXP @wnxpnashville and Celia at @celia_wnxp.

As a bit of lucky happenstance, you can get more insight about WNXP and their process in this episode of Devalued with Program Director and Brand Manager Jason Moon Wilkins and Events Director (and lifelong Nashvillian) Emily Young.

It may have been six weeks since our last episode but there’s been no shortage of fantastic new local music to check out. My apologies for the silence but I will make up for it with nearly two hours of wall-to-wall goodness. This playlist was meticulously curated and then I let the Randomizer Machine shuffle it all up. The results are great no matter how you hear it. Enjoy!

That’s Purser on our cover with a photo by Emily April Allen.

This episode introduces the next of 12 letters from their collaborative visual arts project “Letters to Our Unborn Children: An Exploration of a Woman’s Decision to Remain Child-Free by Choice.” Hosts Sarah and Tarri discuss the “Jester” archetype behind the Letter, and share their research and insights around the themes in the letter. They also interview Maryjane Fahey, founder of Glorious Broads: Sages Not Saints, an online epicenter of confident, unconventional Broads over 50.

Maryjane Fahey is on her fifth reinvention as founder of Glorious Broads, the epicenter of confident, unconventional Broads over 50. She cut her teeth in print, art directing, rebranding and launching magazines from Fast Company and Women’s Health to The Boston Globe, then rode the internet tsunami as launching editor of AARP’s Disrupt Aging, writer for Bustle, TZR, Huffington Post and co-author of a book called Dumped. Glorious Broads is now her focus and love child – “I want to inspire women to say ‘I WANNA BE THAT BROAD’ and see fear mongering about age become a thing of the past in my lifetime. Let roaring into age prevail.”
