Alright, so tonight the indomitable Jess Pope leaves Sudbury for a sojourn across the world, and to celebrate, I'm totally bailing on the show to spend it with her and her friends! If you know/knew Jess Pope, you will totally understand this, and if you don't, then you'll have to accept my good word that attending a send-off for Jess Pope is vastly superior than volunteering to host a 5-hour radio show that no one listens to!
Yet, I cannot be negligent in my duties (well, this week anyway), so I have prepared a playlist for your listening enjoyment. No talk, no commercials, no PSA's....nothing but sweet sweet music for your listening pleasure!
This set is dedicated to Jess Pope, although not particularly about her. Here's a little show we like to call
