Mark your calendars: Radio CPR is having a Pi(e) Day! On March 14 (that’s 3.14) at St. Stephen’s (1525 Newton St. NW). Highlights of the party will include all-you-can-eat homemade sweet and savory pies, live old-time music, Radio CPR Djs a-DJin’, and a Pi(e) Walk (walked in a circle of circumference pi(r)squared) where you can win a pie to take home! The menu is looking fine, with banana cream pie with salty bourbon caramel, vegan avocado pie [a Pi(e) Day classic, 3 years running], a bacon onion tart, classic key lime, and a few surprises all on the list.

Two Upcoming Radio CPR Benefits You Should Peep

Friday, Feb. 25: Start the night at 7 p.m. with a locals-only concert at La Casa (3166 Mt. Pleasant St. NW), featuring Hot Mess (all-lady hardcore-punk), ACME (electro-soul) and artists from Fallen Kings Records (hip-hop). A ton of our Radio CPR DJs will also be on hand to spin music between sets! Only $3, which is basically ridiculous. And then you should mosey on over to…

… our seemingly seasonal house party benefit! Even more Radio CPR DJs will spin at 1118 Girad St. NW with some live drumming by D.C.’s own Kiran. Doors open at 10:30, we dance until dawn. Only a $5-10 donation gets you in the party to help keep us on the air and online, folks.
