I'm having a blast doing this show, even if I complain regularly on air at having to come in early to do it. Please keep listening!When I look at the sullen, defeated places on the BART in the morning on the way to work. It is for those people I do this. Try to provide a little levity, humor, awesome, for their presumably dreary day. And to all of you of course. It's off to an ok start. BRW is a fascinating dude who you wouldn't normally be able to hear from in an outlet like that. I'm going to try to keep the balance between things people may already know and things people SHOULD know. So this week: I'm going to have Melissa Dale Neal from Dark Beach in studio and Bryan Giles from Red Fang on the phone in the second hour. Should be fun! Will I finally play this excellent Whales song that i've bumped four shows in a row because of time? TUNE IN AND SEE!
