Cradle To Grave (Episode Two)
The second episode of my ridiculous new show, called Cradle To Grave, aired last night on Lexington's community radio station, WLXL. In a two hour block, I celebrated the birthday (first hour) & the last day (second hour) of several artists who either arrived or left this crippled world on November 28. I hope it went well, but how could I possibly judge such a thing?
As happens with some of my other radio shows, you can now find this episode for a time at the Self Help Radio website. The show is broken into two parts - listed below - the first part where birthdays are celebrated, the second part where deathdays are mourned.
The site requires a password, which you can find on the site. Why in the world would I make it difficult to listen to one of my radio stumbles? It's bound to be hard enough as it is!
I hope you like.
