So, um, hey, remember me? Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve just been busy, traveling, sick, traveling… Life is back to normal now, which means I can finally get back to doing these shows again.

Speaking of these shows, how do you like the 90-minute format? I’ll tell you the reason I’ve been doing them that way: It’s a LOT of work to publish a show, way beyond just the recording itself. I don’t have as much free time as I used to when I made one a week, so it fits in my life a lot better just to make it every other week, and make it a bit longer than it would be otherwise. I realize an hour and a half might be a little long, but I’m guessing you can stop it if you need to, and come back to it later. It also gives you two weeks, instead of one, to absorb all the new music. Is that how it’s working out for you?

Also, some listeners have told me that this show is their primary source for new music. If that’s the case, did you know that I post one awesome thing every day here, and even more here?

K, anyway, here’s what I’m playing this week:
