A late night radio show you can hear in the afternoon!

Fortunato and Just Jess are letting the crew take it easy this month and just hosting things by themselves. Besides some holiday music we'll present a story of Christmas along Broadway, during the prohibition days in New York as written by Damon Runyon; "Dancing Dan's Christmas", Read to us by David Chelsea. Also another installment of the Father Christmas Letters, by J.R.R. Tolkien, read to us by Katherine Dunn. As well as another chapter of I Love A Mystery. And there may even be time for more surprises. So pour another egg nog, or a Tom and Jerry, and tune in!
