GUESS WHAT? You don't have to adjust your lifestyle in order to LISTEN TO THE GRASS GROW. LTTGG will continue its summer slot into the fall.

So a quick reminder, tune in every Saturday night/Sunday morning from 1a-3a for some GRASS GROWING GOOD TIMES. 88.3 on your FM radio dial or stream it via wcbn.org.

Also, keep your eyes and ears peeled for a chat I recorded with Mexico City's Inservibles.
