Hey listeners!

I’m writing this from an Alaska Airlines jet sitting on the tarmac in Ketchikan. It’s 8:12pm and it just doesn’t look like I’m going to land in Juneau in time to host the show. I need to look into hiring some minions to take over when I can’t be there. How much are minions fetching these days? Am I going to need to save up?

The show will return next weekend with a special Near-Christmas edition, since I will again be out of town for the Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve shows.

In the meantime, check out last week’s recording – it’s a hoot!

Keep rocking, catch you next week. \m/
