D’oh!

I forgot to remind you if you’re in a 90s rock mood, I’ve got the playlist for you. On Sirius XM’s Lithium until 6 in the east, 3 in the west. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 📡📻

Um, maybe somebody should have been subscribing to my podcast with @alliemackay.bsky.social .

So good. Regrettably, this album is *still* not on Spotify. I wonder why.

Looking good, Rich.

Just played it! 🙌

Best cover of a Led Zeppelin song: Go! Also, hey, I’m back on the space radio until 3pm PDT if you want some company.

I give you all the credit

Aww, you shouldn't have. 😊

W🤯W!! JImmy is the GOAT. Congrats on your first 20 years of podcasting, sir. You're the inspiration to the rest of us.

Thank you!

I am sorry to hear that but what is a Christine Pedi?

HR definitely dropped the ball.

Woo hoo!

If you are a SiriusXM subscriber I invite you to go back to the 90s with me for a few hours starting right now on Lithium, Channel 34.

Not the point but I’m uncomfortable with how comfortable people are saying “bold-faced” and not “bald-faced.” We used to be a proper country.

Are we talking about Terry Stafford? Wasn't that an Elvis song too or did he just sound like Elvis?

Was the station still surrounded by a pasture complete with cows like when I worked there?

That’s the cutest story …. 😊
