Salutations™!!
Other than the last song I tried to sneak in not getting played. This week was a winner. It was Soundtracks, too. Fun stuff. A little housekeeping before we get started.
The Camel City Radio app is now available for iOS, Android, and is ready to go on Alexa. Just say, “Alexa, Play Camel City.” There isn’t any need to say “radio.” In fact, when I did it and said radio, it sent me to a Pandora station. So, don’t do that. Also, the Live365 app has a presence on AppleTV, SamsungTV, RokuTV, and Amazon FireTV. Look for us in other places, soon.

“She said, there is no reason and the truth is plain to see. But I wandered through my playing cards and would not let her be one of sixteen vestal virgins who were leaving for the coast. And although my eyes were open, they might have just as well’ve been closed.” – “A Whiter Shade of Pale” (Brooker/Reid/Fisher)
