Morning becomes the TRL of your wildest fever dreams as we celebrate Novena and Anthony’s two year anniversary as co-hosts with YOUR requests.
Feb 2, 2023

In what’s become an annual tradition, Novena and Anthony go live on the ones and twos to rock your requests. Two is the magic number as we celebrate our dynamic duo two years to the day that they took the reins as co-hosts of Morning Becomes Eclectic. The requests themselves are as eclectic as they come: A classic from Janet Jackson, a cumbia spin on Prince via Yukicito, the wry musings of Father John Misty, the liquified disco-funk of Arthur Russell’s Loose Joints, and almost anything you can imagine in between is queued up.

Plus, plenty of cuts honoring the specialness of things that come in pairs, and a reminder from your friendly neighborhood morning show that it is Groundhog Day.
