Episode #186: The Indisputable Leader of the Gang

Full Duplex Radio

This week we start with a signature tune (not ours, we don’t have one) and we end with a TV cartoon theme (we don’t have one of those, either). In between, our conversation is preserved as if in amber, together with some country music, plus folk, pop, jazz, covers, and more including another visit to the Trophy Train. They’re all excellent choices. We wouldn’t be allowed to say that if it weren’t true. That’s the law. Or it should be. So please download and listen.
