On a final note, I should mention that the Totally Worth It Show will be noticeably absent from your airwaves over the next three weeks. Valparaiso has its Spring Break, which lasts two weeks, and we won’t get back until the Sunday, so programming is cancelled for three weeks if you were able to follow that logic. Our next show will be on March 20, 2010. So, tune in at 9 PM on March 20 to hear the next installment of the Totally Worth It Show!

I should note, finally, that after the show, we got a message through the site’s “Send us a message” feature. This message asked “Was there some reason that you felt the need to sing along with Don’t Stop Believin’? Simply curious.” To answer that… No, not really any reason. We just enjoy screwing around on the radio. Thanks for listening!

We might be on from 10-11 if possible, so tune in really quick to see if we’re there!

Also, sorry that the first couple of commentaries are missing.  Erik forgot to press the “record” button on the magical little box that records the show, so those bits of audio are lost forever.  Tsk, tsk, Erik…  Enough of me talking, on to the list!

We did have Kelsey in the studio for this show (you can hear her in the background sometimes, she also muffles Bruce in the commentary track “Forgetting Microphones/Nazi Zombies”).  She was unable to make us sammiches due to her being slightly ill, but she did run to the cafe and grab us food… which we were all grateful for!  Anyway… you’re probably looking for this:

Oh, and if you’re wondering about the pictures I talk about in the commentary… here they are:

Anyway, on to notes about tonight’s show.  As you may or may not know, there is a pretty intense game of Humans vs. Zombies going on right now at Valparaiso University.  As of the writing of this post, at 4 PM, I stand as a human, while Bruce and Wayne are zombies.  If this doesn’t change… I promise it’ll be a very interesting show, provided I can get to the studio safely.  However, there is a mission that I have to complete tonight with the other humans that could zombify me.  Make sure to tune in to the Totally Worth It Show tonight to find out the fate of your favorite hosts!

Until then… wish me luck remaining human!

Reminder from Dick: Our first show is on Saturday, January 23 at 9 PM!
