Brooklyn, NY-based webcast Generic Insight Radio is set to air their 100th episode live tonight at 10:00 P.M. EST.

The program will feature some archived interviews, a special theme of sorts and a contest. Host/DJ Barrie Cohn explains:

In honor of this event, GIR will be running a contest where they air some of the best parts of three classic interviews, but, won't be telling the listeners who the bands are right away. Before the airing of each interview clip(s), they will be going to air songs that relate to each band in some way, only one song being a song by the actual artist that the interview is of. You, as the listener, will have to guess who the artist is in question. If you guess correctly you'll be able to win a bunch of prizes.

Also tonight on the show will be a short call-in interview with Chris Borrelli, owner of Eternal Hope Records.

You can tune in via this link, and send an instant message to GenInsightRadio on AOL Instant Messenger for requests and contest inquiries.

Generic Insight Radio released their first compilation last year through the aforementioned Eternal Hope. Volume 2 is expected to be released later this year.

Someone sent (the story) to me and they’re like ‘Oh now you guys are going and this ice shelf fell that wasn’t supposed to fall for another 15 years.” And I’m like, ‘We didn’t even land there so that wasn’t even our fault. Basically it’s more evidence of global warming. Essentially our runway just fell off.
