This week we do our show by the numbers… quite literally. All songs in this show are about numbers, math, and counting. We moved the studio down to the basement again so this is our first show back in the Dementia Dungeon.

No playlist this week, I kinda went through a bit of a slump and didn’t upload shows regularly and this playlist is long gone… sorry about that. We’ll be back to providing playlists with the next show.

Hey, yeah so… if you are a listener of this podcast you’ll probably notice that I haven’t uploaded an episode since last month. There isn’t a good reason for that except for the fact that I guess I got kinda busy/lazy. Sorry about that! But hey, you know what would make up for it… PIZZA! Yeah, that’s it… I’ll order everyone who listens to this podcast a pizza.

NOTE: All offers of pizza are purely fictional and Byron Lee and his affiliates are under no obligation to provide said pizza.

However, I will provide ton of music about food, INCLUDING our beloved pizza! No playlist this week… I don’t have it anymore and I don’t really wanna listen through this episode and write down all of the songs I played… just trust me, you’ll find plenty of pizza songs here.

OH MY GOD… it’s time for yet another “WEIRD AL” Day! Yes, my friends… the 27th fell on a Sunday and as a result my robot overlords demand that I play NOTHING but “Weird Al” Yankovic songs. Tune in for another fun show of clips, songs, and rare recordings from Al’s past.
