Green Eggs and Ham: While I Was Out (Election Weeks 3 and 4)

I'm a failure. I can't manage to be a political campaign organizer, radio host, comic store employee, server of delicious food and drink AND blogger all at the same time. It's time to fix that. More on that in (literally) a day or two, but for the sake of being complete, here are a couple fun playlists from 2 weeks ago and 1 week ago respectively.

First, we have the Halloween show! Always a personal highlight, with interspersed horror movie trailer, eerie overtones, and the occasional Vincent Price impression thrown in for good measure. Here's the SLAYlist!!!

And here's the playlist for last week's show. Shout Out Out Out Out weigh in on the hot topic of what to do about the high cost of rental property (at least that's what I said they did), I take a dip into the 90's and never want to return, and some guy totally requested "Heart of Gold" like he was asking me to find obscure Krautrock in the station's music library.
