REGARDING THIS FRIDAY

(Week 180 "Pete's Turn")

As stated during my show last week, I will not be broadcasting Friday, September 25. However, I have found a capable substitute in the person of Pete Bianco, who will be playing an array of music that should be congenial to all RADIOLA! listeners. I'll try to make an aircheck of the show and will possibly upload it to my Live365 station.

Tune in at 8 PM Eastern to WHCL FM (with direct streaming here) for Pete's program.
