Radio Fragments

I'm midway through a triptich of landmark shows. Last week was 24 (meaning 48 hours of music), this week it's 25 (just a nice roundish number that feels comforting to us base-10 entities), and next week it'll be 26 (meaning 26 weeks, or 1/2 year on the air).

Ok, so they're all relatively arbitrary milestones, but I feel like i'm really hitting my stride with the weekly schedule...well, except for the late nights sometime. This week I needed to be in the office at 8:30 the next day, so I'm a little bleary, so I'll leave it at that and let the music speak for itself.

The show is available from the streaming archive, or you can download the podcast/mp3 version by hour (below).
