176 Play That Funky Music

The Radio Free D’ni schedule covers every Sunday these days, and I forgot to check on the dates for Mysterium, so we coincided.  It was a very pleasant surprise to find sixteen people in the cavern when I got there, and a total audience of 28 overall during the show – one of our best attended for a while.  The subject of the show seems to have been a big hit as well 🙂

Road Songs remastered

It’s summer holiday travel season, so road songs should be an appropriate theme for this week’s show. The show goes through various aspects of being on the road, so it will not be too quiet a ride.

175 … to look for America

Our first show specially assembled for the Fourth of July, and it was very successful, despite the celebration drawing away some of our audience.  There were still over 25 listeners, a very good number for a public holiday.

Our show was assembled by Hugh, our most English, nay, Liverpudlian member of the team.   He’ll be back,

…looking for America

To honour our show co-inciding with the Independence Day of the U.S. of America, we have put together a show exploring many things American, and many corners of the U.S. of America. Politics have been carefully left out in order to find the actual America.
