Thanks to those who listened. Next week’s theme branches off of the general concept of ’sharing’ with cover songs, but not only cover songs, oh no. I will also include some of the original versions of songs you had no idea were covers. If your I just blew your mind, then it’s far too easy to surprise you.

My show happens Mondays 8-10 pm eastern standard time.
