  • A Great Listen

    Absolutely love seeing this show pop up in my feed. Amusing, informative, and - to this 73 year old hippie and lover of music good, bad and awesome - a nostalgic reminder of musical history and the days (and nights) of interesting radio. Can’t get enough of the three distinct personalities. All good!
