Listen to past episodes of “Floydian Slip”

Posted December 29, 2025 by Floydian Slip

Patreon“Floydian Slip” has partnered with Patreon to allow fans access to our archive of past programs.

When you sign on as a Slipporter at Patreon for $5 a month, you’ll receive on-demand access to the digital archive of our weekly Pink Floyd radio program that goes back to 2009.

“The most-common question I get asked is how people can listen to past episodes,” program producer and host Craig Bailey says. “Now you can.”

Bailey created “Floydian Slip” in 1989 on a campus station as a student at Ithaca College in upstate New York. Over the last nearly 40 years, he’s produced more than 1,550 episodes.

“Unfortunately, I didn’t start saving shows for posterity until I self-syndicated the program in 2009,” he says, which explains why Slipporter access only reaches back to ’09. Still, there are currently more than 850 shows waiting to be made available, and the pool grows each week.

We’re rolling out the archive by making available four (4) past episodes each month. Slipporters will be notifed by email when programs are added to the archive, and can listen to the shows on-demand and commercial-free at Patreon.

Programs will have aired across our Random Precision Radio Network of more than 120 stations at least two (2) years prior to being made available on Patreon.

Playwright Tom Stoppard dies

Posted December 2, 2025 by Floydian Slip

Tom StoppardPlaywright Tom Stoppard died Nov. 29 in Dorset, England. He was 88.

A renown playwright — “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” (1966), “Jumpers” (1972), “Travesties” (1974) and “The Real Thing” (1982) to name just a few — he also wrote for the screen: “Brazil” (1985), “Empire of the Sun” (1987), “Billy Bathgate” (1991), “Shakespeare in Love” (1998) and others.

His 2006 play “Rock ‘n’ Roll” references Pink Floyd co-founder Syd Barrett. Barrett’s mental decline plays a role in the play’s storyline.

Stoppard also wrote “Darkside,” a BBC Radio 2 production to celebrate Floyd’s “The Dark Side of the Moon” (1973) album on its 40th anniversary.
