Getting back into the swing of things has been difficult of late. My rhythms are all off from being away and then coming back just as the semester starts. Gremlins took advantage of these feelings on a couple of times, particularly on the recording of the show. Part of the first hour sounds like it was recorded in a closet, but about 40 minutes in, eveyrthing clears up (thankfully just in time for Can’s “Hallelulwhah”!). Next week in addition to the music, we have a ton of giveaways, so be sure to tune in!
