Well, it was my Birthday. Actually thought about taking a night off, but I've decided, what the heck: why not make it extra special, celebrating it with you all! Afterall, one of the greatest gifts (the ones that aren't wrapped up) is being able to do what we love, and The Cage is not just a radio, but each episode is a celebration of our lives: loud, proud, and BADASS!
