I'm pretending I'm in my college radio station again (s/o to WXDU 88.7 RM) and broadcasting not so live every day for two weeks! It's fun!

With all due respect to ruffianbandwidth
the University of Minnesota's Radio K is the classic model of the college alternative radio station The Current wishes it could be. (I still dig Mac Wilson's show tho). the Twin Cities is lucky enough to maintain more than one very cool radio station.
Radio K plays new bands who sometimes sound like old bands. An actual eclectic mix of genres. Random metal every now and again. College kids who, all these years later, keep spinning Jeff Buckley.
I'm always shazaming this station. It gives me hope that indie music still has a future.
My favorite thing is listening to the dj reading the top 5 songs of the week and feeling old because I have never heard of any of the bands but they all have hilarious names and song titles.
My other favorite thing is when a 20 year old dj plays Texas is the Reason followed by Braid in the middle of a "classic 00s emo" set.

I don't know if this technically fits the criteria you're looking for, but they're a great local radio station in the Twin Cities with some real awesome programming. It was originally college owned, then became the first fully listener-supported radio station in the US during the1920s, and was then eventually sold to MPR.

Pitchfork says: “The sprawling and spectacular Cindy Lee album is an essential trove of music. Each song is like a foggy transmission from a rock’n’roll netherworld with its own ghostly canon of beloved hits.”
To me, just a really solid album of moody lo-fi goodness, reminiscent of e6 and the like. Only available to stream for free on their site or YT or as a download. Donations suggested.

Lodge Bread without question. Best I’ve had outside of Israel. So creamy and delicious. Pita is on point too. Fresh and thick.
