I was away all last week and just got back in town in time for this week's show... so I grabbed a stack of albums and made some radio for you. Enjoy!
Please excuse the first couple of minutes of this week's episode. Being the first one in the studio can lead to some crazy curveballs (in this case, learning how to mute [and more importantly] unmute audio channels on the board).
Sleep in and never miss an episode: join my mail list or follow me on Twitter at @boywgirlsname.
