    A WYXR original, tune in to Without A Net for a lively mix of good Memphis radio, mostly from the forgotten crevices of the second half of the 20th century.

    DJ Jerry digs through the stacks to compose a weekly musical love letter for listeners, an eclectic blend of Sunday night sounds that usually centers around a strong dose of liberal-minded stretched-out jazz improvisation with frequent visits from the blues, funk, soul, & possibly some old punk rock & hip hop sprinkled throughout to keep things unpredictable.

    From the purest jazz all the way down to its most impurest… & lots of other nice sounds too.

    This is jazz radio for folks whose ears aren't sure how they feel about jazz radio, a show that'll go deep into the music while making it all fun & accessible for all. Come on and give a listen this Sunday night!
