"If you've ever beat someone at Magic just so you could sell him your winning deck, you might be a geek..."This week, I'm fighting a cold, but the best radio voices are the ones that sound like you've been smoking a pack a day for the last 20 years, so... My reading of RPG stats for creatures mentioned in songs last week was a bit of a hit, so I'm gonna keep doing that. It's a good way to transition into songs. I'm also trying out new features to better fill the last half-hour. If you couldn't listen or understand the French interventions, I supply the episode's playlist, with You-Tube links where available.
Intro tune: Doctor Who IX - Murray Gold
Ouverture du Gala para académique - Justin Guitard (by popular demand because he's a friend of ours who wrote and sang a parody of the year in review - excuse the sound, it was recorded in a closet)

Goodbyes and your Doctor Who theme of the week (with wonderfully sad lyrics):
Doctor Who Zer0sen Remix - Patrick Wade Runyan
The show's on CKUM Radio every Saturday between 7 PM and 8:30 PM Atlantic Time (-4 GMT) on 93,5 FM in the Moncton area, or online, while capacity isn't exceeded, HERE. (Note that there won't be a show next week as the station is doing special programming around the East Coast Music Awards. As it turns out, I had to give my time to a charity event anyway.)
