You mean to tell me that you built a time machine? Out of a seed catalog?

 
Happy New Seed Catalog to you and your kin. It felt great to get back into the studio last night after a couple weeks off. I talked about Paul Harvey, and the often mispronounced pawnsetta plant, but mostly I talked about seed catalogs, glossy and new, vintage and torn, Gurneys, Burpees, I talked about them all. I also played some most righteous free range rock and roll. Have a look at last night's playlist and keep it rural.

It's hard to go wrong with any radio show that includes "Mr. Blue Sky"...
