Was, is, and is to come

Hello! Holy neglecting the ol' blog, Batman!

It's been a busy month or so. Work, traveling, various endeavours. I'll post more regularly soon, pals. This Faith Healer song seemed fitting for a title, in this instance.

The last few weeks, I've also been joined by some great trainees, at various stages of the learning process - Theresa, Amber, and Daniel! It's been fun to have them join in, learning their musical flair and tastes, as well as helping them prepare to be on air. I've had a blast working with all of them! I've said it before, and I'll say it again - boy do I love this station. What a great bunch of folks with a keen interest in community radio. ♥♫

Here you go, starting in backwards order from the June 4 show. I will colour code the song picks from the folks in training. :)
