Cheryl, thanks for sending me here. I took a look around and found myself here. Being at a non-profit radio station I find it particuarly interesting you took the time to do your own show on community radio. Says a lot. Personal freedom is everything isn’t it? Hope we meet soon (we did, didn’t we?) Take care, ANNE (fellow radiator host , The Next Frontier Wednesdays at 10:00am)

Hi Anne! Just getting the blog started (it’s new as of about 2 weeks ago), I hope you’ll come back, share the site with others, and by all means give me some feedback from time to time to let me know how things are shaping up here. Best wishes in your continued great work. – Cheryl

Hi Cheryl – saw your pics with Pitz Quattrone for your “National Didgeridoo Day Show”. I did a similar show a few weeks ago on “Shillelagh Safari”, Saturdays 8-10pm. Sadly, I did not interview Pitz, nor did I know of his album with the Earthman Band, but I have contacted him since then and I now have a copy of his album. I noticed you played Richard Walley on your didgeridoo show as well. I also played a track from Walley that I found from You Tube.com. It’s great that our shows have such similar formats; coming from 7 years broadcasting on WWPV 88.7-FM I’ve been broadcasting for a long time as the ONLY world music DJ on the schedule, so I wanted to thank you for the work you do to keep the music on “The Radiator” diversified.
I hope you had a good thanksgiving, and perhaps we can collaborate in someway in the future.
All the Best,
Edward
