How’s it going?
Hi, Vision! Happy Super Bowl!
We’re sorta pulling for Atlanta. Just because.
You doing okay?
I'm great. Holy crap. I was telling you about this new pellet grill...freakin’ amazing. Just made some of best and easiest ribs ever.
This One Out of Seven is bizarre...
It serves Murray Horwitz’s purpose.
Whoa! You gotta let us know what grill and all that!

Thanks, Vision. I’ll check that grill out.
Good night, Friend.

Hey, I like that lineup. Will give it a listen today.
I can’t find a listen live link. You?
That doesn’t work for me.
That is strange. Works fine for me.
If I go to the page on a pc nothing is there other than the comments. On a tablet a player pops up but won’t play. More strange I can’t find any other stream for it via iheartradio, etc...
That sucks.
