This is not only a test!
04/10/2008 Duration: 33minI've been diligently promoting this on Facebook every week and want to see if the trickle of listeners is affected at all by not promoting it over there... so if you're a fan on Facebook, just listen, don't tell anyone! I know, that sounds like a strange request, but I just want to measure the results without any Facebook promotion this week.

Separation of Church and State?
14/09/2008 Duration: 29minIt's not at all surprising that bureaucrats and agencies want to regulate something as simple, cool and fun as vanity plate messages. Sad but true, not only are "dirty" messages censored, but a number of religious vanity plates have been denied and featured in the news lately. This week, I just happened to stumble over a few and then saw a great one right before mixing down this segment.
