Top ways to support DJ Shotski and Polka Time
Be a Shotski Lodge member
Want to be a regular supporter? The Shotski Lodge is a digital space where I can interview interesting people, spotlight special albums, and talk about polka culture. Powered by Substack, Shotski Lodge members contribute monthly or annual support so that everyone can access free e-mail newsletters and regular content. Become a member: djshotski.substack.com.
Support via Venmo
Want to make a one-time gift? Contributions via Venmo have the lowest fees and more of your money will go to my mission. The tip jar is always open via Venmo.
Host a vinyl party with DJ Shotski
Hire DJ Shotski for a polka party! Polka records are great for Oktoberfest parties, brewery beer launches, and Wisconsin-themed events. I also play vintage soul, jazz and 80’s pop. Contact me at djshotski@gmail.com for availability.
Donate records
The answer to free records is always “yes.” If you have records that need a good home, I will take them. If I can’t use them, I will redistribute them among my vinyl-loving friends.
Your support offsets the costs to produce Polka Time with DJ Shotski and prepare for events. Costs include:
Buying records, record cleaning equipment and protective covers, record storage
Turntables, accessories, equipment maintenance
Marketing expenses including website subscriptions, hosting, and other digital creator tools
Travel to get to events, the radio station to record a weekly show, and to pick up donated records
Thank you for supporting this effort to get more people to listen to vintage polka and old records. Your help will keep this thing going!
