Six years ago, Mushroom FM was born. We unveiled an exciting fusion of Internet broadcasting and social media. We've been honoured to be a guest in so many homes and to accompany people all around the world as they journey with their mobile device. The station broadcast continuously until November 2013, took a break, and then relaunched even better than ever in August last year.

Last week, it was Swedes. This week, there's plenty of spaghetti, as our wacky news segment is rather invaded by stories about the church of the flying spaghetti monster. Golly! You be careful with that, spaghetti is full of all the wrong carbs. Oy!

Not yet there isn’t, but from 11pm Eastern tonight, that’ll change.
That’s right, the shed will open up again for yet another week.
That’s 3Pm Sunday afternoon here in New Zealand, and 4am Sunday in the UK, by the way.
AS usual the music selection will be all over the place.
The triple threat is back, and so too is the Live and Loud Segment.
Requests are always welcome.

Come on in, don’t be shy.
As always, I’ll look forward to seeing ya!

It’s bedtime on Bonair—Saturday evening 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. Studies tell us we are more sleep deprived now than ever before and this has a huge impact on our daily functioning. For blind people, this can be especially true, due to the non24 disorder. On today’s show, we will discuss sleep habits—good and bad, and find out what your recipes are for a great night in the sack! No, not that kind of night!

I'm taking a break from loading the Mushroom Flyer with birthday provisions to bring you another jolly old Mosen Explosion. First, my sincere thanks to uncle Dean for taking such good care of the show last week with all that talk about school days when I was stricken! Stricken I was! But now I'm unstricken and I can't wait to get back on the air.

It’s almost 11pm Eastern on a Saturday night.
This means it’s almost 4am Sunday morning in the UK, and 3PM Sunday afternoon here in New Zealand.
This means I’ll be waiting for ya inside the shed.
I’ll be ready to play those tunes, good and bad, happy and sad.
The usual features are still there, and so is the opportunity to get in your requests.
And, if you’ve never contacted the show before, but listen most weekends, feel free to come and say hi, I won’t mentioned your name on air if you’d prefer.

VBonair’s Back, Saturday 6:00 – 8:00 EST on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. Yes, I have recovered from my cold and am ready to play your favourite tunes, chat about all sort of subjects, and introduce you to our newest kitchen gadget in “Food for Thought”. We will be paying tribute to country legend, Merle Haggard, who sadly passed away this week at age 79. So, if you don’t want to get on the fightin side of me, tune in and join in. To participate in the show, email bonnieatmushroomfm.com or tweet @bonniemosen

On 25 April 2010, Mushroom FM took Internet broadcasting to a new level, with its fun brand of radio and innovative use of social media.

We were sleeping for our fourth and fifth birthdays, but we’re once again wide awake and ready to party like it’s 2016. This will be our best birthday party ever, and the place for all things birthday this year as http://www.MushroomFM.com/birthday2016.

We hope that when you tune into a Mushroom FM show, it all sounds effortless. The reality is though that committing to a show on Mushroom FM is a commitment of more than just the hours that the show airs. The fun guys often think of themes and put music together based on them. There may be features that require some research, and often, we’re looking for things to say in our voice breaks that keep you interested. In short, it’s a bigger commitment than you may realise and I’m grateful to everyone who volunteers their time for Mushroom FM.
