Today’s show went on air here at WRCT, the next few weeks there will be shows, but they won’t be found at the usual place. If you want to listen live, please go to This Stream to listen for the next few weekends. I will be posting the link before the shows, so you can check back in here for the link before we go on.
We had a nice, if slightly packed show today, but we got it all in. Definitely a fun time had by all as we hit internet protocols, and privay concerns, some quick hits. Also, it doesn’t really matter what your sign is because we al l have to live life.
