Oh zoom, you chased the day awaaaay...Hiiiigh noon, the moon and stars came out to play...Then my whole wide world went zoom! Yes, all of our worlds these past few months have gone to Zoom! And Whistle Stop Week is no different. We decided to (virtually) get the band back together to record a lockdown special episode courtesy of everyone's favorite security-flawed webinar app! Joining regular host Mark Turner, our irregular skippers Mark Barz and Carrie Simison, and joining them...well, you just need to listen. It's a circus!

You know who you are. No, not you. Yes, you. Also, a huge gracias to our incredible sponsors, in particular, those who provided alcohol. You enabled us. I hope you're proud of yourselves. And a final MASSIVE outpouring of LOVE to each and every one of our listeners, whether you tuned in locally (shout out to Colorado Springs!), via the interwebs across the US and overseas, through Tri-Lakes Radio, or on-campus at the now infamous Hofstra University. YOU made it all worth while. YOU made us want to do it. In short, it's your fault. Especially you, Trevor Bibic.It's been a ride. Who knows...maybe there's another stop or two for us to make yet? But for now, we'll love you and leave you with these wise words of wisdom: listen to the 'Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me' podcast instead. It's a way better show than our's anyway. You're welcome!
