Salutations™!!
The ONLY hiccup this week was me placing songs in a weird order that wasn’t the way it was planned. However, every song that was supposed to play… did.
So, the topic this week was my take on The BCPF’s “Rose Garden of Doom.” The classic alternative, new-wave, goth, folkie things that she likes. I was proud of it and she gave me two thumbs up. Here’s the setlist:

Do you have ideas for show topics? I’d really love to hear your ideas because eventually (any day now), I’m going to run out of things to talk about out of my feeble brain.
Also, you don’t have to be “local” to listen. We are an internet-based radio station and are licensed to broadcast anywhere in the US, Canada, and the UK. We broadcast out of the Omniverus Studios at Liberty Plaza.
Your next question may be: well, how do we listen? We have you covered on that. The Camel City Radio app is available on both the Apple Play and Google Play stores, so we are compatible with any iOS or Android device. Also, we now have our Alexa Skill. All you have to do is say, “Alexa, play Camel City” and Bob’s your uncle. You don’t even have to say “radio” (because she takes me to some weird Pandora channel). Just “Camel City.”
You can comment here, send an email or call 336-462-8660 and leave a voicemail. We will play your VM on the air (unless you tell us not to.
Until next time, same blog channel at some blog time…
Scorp out!
