New Episode of Songs in the Key of Dave - "Postcards from Elsewhere"

On Sunday, November 23, a new episode of Songs in the Key of Dave premieres. This one is called "Postcards from Elsewhere." It is all about travel.

My dad and I take a journey across the word —swapping stories of plane rides, sunburns, hurricanes, missed tours, good mistakes, and the strangers who became friends along the way.

From a sun-scorched trip to Jamaica in the early ’60s… to a honeymoon-turned-evacuation in the Bahamas…to cruises, cobblestones, ancient sites, wrong boats, right boats, and an unforgettable night in Edinburgh—each memory becomes its own postcard from elsewhere.

This one features music from Frank Sinatra • Harry Belafonte • Bobby Darin • Jimmy Buffett • Etta James • Willie Nelson • Dean Martin • Pascal Dennis • Si Cranstoun • Alicia Lemke

Listen at 2pm (EST) or on-demand via Mixcloud. Play it below:

Pumpkin Party of Death

3pm - This is the very first mix made by our friend J-Bones. He is a master when it comes to making Halloween mixes.

4:30 pm  This is the second ever mix by J-Bones (and one of my favorites).

The Weird Show

6:30 pm - This is the latest JB mix. And it's a good one.

And then, a surpise JB mix later at 10pm. Which one will it be?

Happy Halloween!
