Tonight's journey was a FUNtastic one! DJ Muffin was in the studio the entire time and even participated in "Muffin's Picks", by running around finding the tunes selected by YOU, our KBOO family!

Many thanks to all who called with their "Muffin's Picks". Thank you for sharing your love of music with us and fellow listeners.

Tonight's show also included a special spoken word "open mic" flashback! I played segments of all the spoken word contributions to "Paula's Picks" so far. It was a lovely revisit of the amazing poems and short stories written by talented local and not-so-local artists!
