DJ T-Swizzle

Former student host of Tea Time with Terry

What’s your show about and when does it air?  Since it’s still a new show,  I am trying to find out exactly what it’s going to be. For now, it’s an hour consisting of music (it can be an album, a genre, or an artist) and throughout the show I analyse the music and add some fun facts and entertaining conversation. My show airs Thursdays from 9 pm to 10 pm.

Is there a story behind your on-air name? I had a list of names, but none of them felt like actual DJ names. So I decided on this one because it’s cheesy and fun.

How long has your show been on the air? Since 10/25/18

Tell us about a funny incident that happened during your show. During my 2nd show, I was signing off and instead of saying DJ T-Swizzle I accidentally said DJ Tasty Terry on accident. That was one of my runner up DJ names, which I decided against for obvious reasons.

What do you like to do in your spare time? In my little free time, I enjoy playing billiards or hanging out with friends. Sometimes if I’m lucky I can do both at the same time.

Have you gotten any funny calls during your show? No, but I have gotten suggestions after my show. Basically, they had the suggestion of spilling tea/gossip since it was in the title of the show. Maybe one day, but as of now I don’t have nearly enough tea to spill for an hour of content.

If you knew you were going to be stranded on a desert island, what are 10 of the songs you’d want with you? I like a lot of dance/EDM music. If I had to pick a favorite song, it would have to be “Wake Me Up” by Avicii. I have listened to that song so many times.

What is one of your most memorable concert experiences? My most memorable concert experience happened towards the beginning of the Fall 2018 semester, when I went to a Twenty One Pilots concert in Chicago at 7 pm on a Wednesday and returned the next day for my 9 am class on time. The album colors were black and yellow, so my friend jokingly suggested I wear a bee outfit. So I wore a sexy bee Halloween costume to the concert, and had so much fun. That is one concert I am going to remember for a long time!

Tell us something about yourself that people might find surprising. I can ride the unicycle, and I like inventing stuff. 

In the movie “WKUF: The Untold Story”, who would you cast as yourself? In this movie, I would cast myself as the best friend of the main character. And I would probably, give them wonderful advice.
