Hi Mary, thanks much for those. I already tuned my kitchen wifi radio into antioch and will definitely check these out too. It's fun how they correspond the current date to the date of previous shows.

Hi Gina! Are you getting any cool weather yet in the South?

To: Dr. Scarpetta

Not yet, Doc. Right now, the air is oppressive, but not too hot. It’s because we have Pacific weather moving over us, under a tornado watch and some warnings.

We’re just in front of the red/yellow line, right on the beach.
