Founder Of Pirate Cat Radio Explains His Decision
SAN FRANCISCO -- It is not every day radio DJ's mask their identity for a TV interview.
But then, Pirate Cat Radio isn't what you'd call your typical radio station.
"Some people would say we are a legal radio station. Some people would say 'No, they're illegal and they need to get off the air.' It all depends on how you look at it," says the founder of Pirate Cat Radio.
The way the FCC might view it the unlicensed radio station broadcasting from a Mission District theater is flat-out illegal.
But to the station founder, who would prefer the FCC only know him as "Monkey Man," illegal is just a word.
"One of the things that Pirate Cat Radio is here for is not only to let people come in and play music they want on the air, but also to say what they want on the air," says Monkey Man.
As NBC11 first reported Thursday, Pirate Cat Radio is doing exactly what it wants.
Two weeks ago, it began illegally broadcasting Howard Stern's morning satellite radio show, unedited and raw, on FM frequency 87.9 in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
"That's what Howard Stern's been fighting for, is to fight for people to let people do what they want on the radio, whether you like it or not. So that's something we do here at Pirate Cat Radio."
Since NBC11's story ran Thursday, Pirate Cat's free Stern broadcasts have gotten national attention.
On Friday, Stern's satellite news channel ran its own story on Pirate Cat.
Monkey Man does not apologize for his radio rebellion.
Although, he says he will stop the illegal broadcasts if Stern personally asks him to.
As to whether he's concerned about the FCC suddenly taking notice, Monkey Man says, "I'm really not concerned about them at all. They can come and talk if they like. I'll fix a pot of coffee and have my wife make them some cookies."
