Wednesdays are solid radio days around here on KKRN 88.5FM and kkrn.org, starting at 11am with Western Red and If That Ain't Country, followed by the Down Under Hour and Full Moon Hacksaw, Harry Shearer, and on into the wee small hours.
On my little part of the day, here is what's in store for you:
