Hey Everybody. So it's time to get down and funky with my first non-live radio show. I was having problems assembling everyone at the same time to tune in...so here's the solution....a weekly 1-hour long downloadable show. SWEET!

Ok, so be forgiving with this first show as I was still getting used to the volume bars and media player I was using so it's full of glitches. But worry not my friends, the jams are intact and still pack a punch.

The link is at the top, you can right-click to save it to your computer or just click it to stream it in.

Check back for new shows and feel free to leave comments!

Be good! --Vin
