Doug Schulkind:

To all Testify faithful:

Be sure to tune back in to the Drummer Stream at 7pm (ET) for an extra special fill in for Explorers Room. I will be covering for Flash Strap and playing one track from each radio program heard during the last week on Give the Drummer Radio. Truly an embarrassment of riches! I will start the show with a choice number from this very episode of Testify! Tune in and check out what I've selected.

The fun happens here: wfmu.org...

See you all in a couple of hours.

Great show, Larry!
