"The Seven Deadly Sins" July 4, 2008

(Week 129)

This RADIOLA! offers you Seven Deadly Sins for the price of five. (And, if you act today, we'll include a stainless-steel, digital ready potato peeler at no extra cost.) Tune in tonight at 8 PM Eastern to WHCL (with streaming HERE). The show will be uploaded to Live365 this weekend.

(I know this show has absolutely nothing to do with Independence Day, John Philip Sousa, George M. Cohan, or bombs bursting in air, but every once in a while I like to go counter-intuitive. Plus we're all sinners--even Americans!)
