Best Place to Hear Music?
To showcase the reason I'm much happier listening to music I've discovered online, I give a quick tour of my local FM radio stations.

Two Things I Like: Airplane-Flying Penguins & Colbert
I recommend "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" and the upcoming Comedy Central holiday special, "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All!," as well as Stephen Colbert's recent interview on NPR's "Fresh Air."

Song of the Week
"Colors," by Kira Willey is my pick for the week. It's a happy, sunshiney song, perfect for listening on lovely days or as a sweet pick-me-up on hard days.

"I Love to Dance," by Langhorne Slimm

Yes, We Did!
This week's show is dedicated to the results of the historic 2008 U.S. Presidential election, which took place on November 4th. I play some clips I recorded just before and after voting, as well as an adorable plea from a little kid for all adults to vote, and the fantastic "Yes, We Can," from Will.i.am. There's more, of course, but you'll have to listen to find out about it!

If you've not yet seen President-Elect Obama's acceptance speech or would just like to take it in again, you can watch it in full on YouTube.
