On top of an already action-packed weekend (USBweatherball!!), I got another opportunity to help host The Guest List on WYCE FM with my old friend Michael. Total fun! I "won" this additional slot by having the most "eclectic" (whatever that means) purchase at Vertigo on Record Store Day. You can relive the awkward magic below. The last one is here.
