Radio Fragments - Too Many Themes
by Jeff on May.05, 2010,under Welcome, News, Weekly Show, Specialty Show
Let's see, we've got Cinco de Mayo, the 40th anniversary of Kent State, May Day, Mother's Day, and I forgot about "May The Fourth Be With You". So many different ways to go, so I sort of tossed them into a blender and ended up with tonight's show. Serve chilled.
