An UNHEALTHY OBSESSION? * Only recently have I asked myself the question posed by many through the years, as I slog through piles of RUBBISH in order to extract the SWEET KERNELS of sound that I present to you, dear listener, each week on the OFF THE HOOK program (with a side of my personal corn)! * IS IT WORTH IT? * Our answers may differ, but as a public servant who is COMPELLED to educate, for the betterment of all ears and minds, mine would be a resounding 'YES!' * You, on the other hand, may care less for a diet heavy with current music (today's extra-long Birthday Segment will offer respite) and OFF THE HOOK may not be for you. * TRY IT! * If you don't like it, maybe we can still be friends. Maybe not.
