The Letter B

Finally was able to get a list together and have something to say about each song again. Instead of throwing songs in willy nilly. Going to try to have more to talk about rather than just the usual ramblings from now on. But I have been known to not follow through on things I set for myself. Here’s to a somewhat coherent flowing show... at least per song.

Please Turn Over To Side B

Maribel and myself talking tings. The audio quality is up and down because of the location of the mic when Maribel and I are recording at the same time – sorry. Will endeavour to fix this up in future recordings.

Ava Cruz Ward

Our little girl, Ava Cruz Ward, was born Wednesday Jan 28th at 9.49am weighing in at 8 pounds 6 ounces (3.795kg). Mum and Ava are doing fantastic. We're home now and getting settled into our new life as a family.

Maribel and I recorded a bit together which I might post up soon if you can hear us both ok (she was sitting in the back seat watching Ava on the last recording so we'll see). Thanks for the congrats - and I'll be back with more shows, just might take a week or so.

Hear a white-boy talk about his teenage love of hip-hop. Thanks to my n-word, Andrew, for pointing me in the direction of a free web-hosting option. And big ups to Gabe from Fam Radio for the other suggestion too. I'm still working out the kinks so I'm hoping I'll get it all sorted very soon.
