The show is tonight 7 to 9 PM EST.

One final bump before we punch the big red button marked "broadcast".

A message from John, AKA, the Sleepy DJ:

As some of you know, OK and myself have been broadcasting from G-Town Radio, a Germantown based, internet community radio station. We've been presenting a mix of music two Tuesdays a month from 7-9pm. It's currently on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays. In addition to having more guests and themes, we've recently expanded to a blog and podcast. We'll be posting other stuff we're into, updates, events and new and old episodes in case you missed us on-air or the first time around.

Tonight for our first interview, we're honored to have Jeff Winner, curator of the Raymond Scott archives. In case you aren't familiar, Raymond Scott was a musician, composer, engineer and inventor who worked in jazz, electronic, and avant-garde music. We're lucky to have him. There's no better intro to Raymond Scott than Jeff so if you can, tune in.

This is just a one-time reminder to check us out along with the other great programs on G-Town Radio. Let us know you're out there. Tune in, check out the podcast, become a fan on Facebook, subscribe in iTunes or send an email back if you want us to send out the occasional e-mail nudge. Thanks.

take care, john

I've been meaning to for a while, and I've been playing with the idea of finding a co-host for mine cause I can't keep it going on the talk end or the discussion end by myself for 2 hours. hopefully wherever I end up, I'll be able to reformat what I have into something a lot more interesting/real.
