Hark! On the Mosen Explosion, why we're having Bread at Christmas

Hark! Yes hark at once I say! Because things are really ramping up for Christmas now. So hark! I mean man! In just two weeks, I’ll be coming to terms yet again with not getting, yet again, the present I most want, yet again, a Sonos in the bathroom. Meh.

And of course in just one week, one week from this very moment, we’ll be counting down the top 100 holiday songs as voted for by you. Have you voted yet? You’d better hurry up if not, or I’m gonna tell Santa on you. Yes, that’s what I’ll do.

So today we are very much in festive mode with plenty of cool holiday tunes on the Mosen Explosion. I ain’t holding back. But we’re making an exception to our festive rule for one special artist, David Gates, born on this day in 1941. In my view, he’s one of the most talented singer/songwriters of the 20th century. Some of his lyrics are so beautiful they can make you cry. So we’ll take a break from the holiday happenings from time to time to feature some tracks by David Gates and Bread.

There’s a banana report as well. Heidi and Richard will tell us their top choices for the holiday countdown, and unfortunately, Richard will introduce us to eh…well…frankly…a really scary Christmas song. I mean this’ll put Dominic in perspective for some of you.

All the fun and the festivities begin at 2 PM Eastern, 7 PM UK, 8 AM in little New Zealand, only on your holly jolly festive fabulous fungal feast, Mushroom FM. Hark!
