PROGRAM 38: DO THE DADA MAMBO! [04.18.13]

Rakete bee bee, grouseketeers. Sorry it’s taken me a week to post this. Show is also 30 minutes shorter than usual because of punctuality issues. Probably for the best. Mostly jazz, international sounds, and a little bit of easy listening. Enjoy yourself, if you survive the first ten minutes. Rakete bee zee.

PROGRAM 34: SNOW & SOCA [1.17.13]

Snow was in the forecast when I did this show more than two weeks ago, but it never came. We’ve seen 70 degree days since then, but as if in direct challenge of the will of the God of Punxatawney, it’s 20 degrees out and snowing now as I type this post. Enjoy some snow tunes, then warm up with some 2013 soca hits!
