Newb Question: When you say 'last show of the summer'....does that mean you wont be back until next summer?

3:20 PM, August 27th, 2023
Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hiya, oldriveroad! Nah, not to worry, we'll be back next week same as always. I just mean summer's over, not the show.

August ain't what it used to be, too introspective and nostalgic. When its not doing that, its moving too quickly. I hope to capture the spirit of the month again one day, but listen: We both know there will be days ahead this fall that are in every measure as good and warm and cheerful as a genuine August afternoon, but yea, here we are

One hundred percent agree, oldriveroad. One hundred percent.
