    I liked that Adam & Keith song, but you don’t have any links to other stuff of theirs. Could you make the mp3 available for download (with their permission, of course)?

    By far, one of my least favorite episodes – even the ‘wacky’ wans’t good wacky, IMO. But you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do 😉

    You made up for it with the next show, though, Son of LiT.

    Keep rockin’.

    Just heard bits of you reviewed on 6music on the bbc here in the uk. Superfantastische! only listened to 169 so far, but I’m sending links to many people.
    Thankyou very much for your hard work.
