Zephyr – noun – a soft, gentle breeze

Hey where were you when you heard that there was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump and was it while listening to this radio show? Cause that was WEIRD to process while holding down the quirky soundboard, the internet interruptions, the heat, and trying not to cry while continuing to send birthday songs* to cancers, especially the ones I gave birth to!

This was a catch-up episode since I missed last week~ we highlighted Sonic Boom and Spectrum :), played two songs with the word zephyr(which I thought was a type of bird honestly so I’m glad I looked it up!), and introduced alien o’clock. Despite the hiccups and intense news, we kept it light and had fun ~

I absolutely hated blowing it on cueing up my clear pink Rosali record, and having to re-connect the internet a couple times, it was nice to catch up with our station manager at the end of the show while we restarted everything, he’s cool-

Is Bill Callahan every week for one year too much Bill Callahan? You know what, as I write it out, how silly. It’s not nearly enough. I’m bringing Letters to Emma Bowlcut next week and starting a year of Bill Callahan. (There are 52 letters in the book, and I accept the challenge of finding 52 Bill Callahan / Smog songs to go with each one).
