So I just bring my own stuff 90% and since I have good personal relations with Beta-lactam ring, ROIR, and a few other great labels, they end up getting disproportional representation on my show. Which is o.k. since tons of great stuff comes out on those labels, but I simply can't afford to buy much music these days.

Some college radio stations will just play stuff from a band's myspace, purevolume, etc., so you can pretty much request anything you want and they can get it. Do you have that option?
