These threads are intended, first, to get people interested in Woody's radio shows, but also have served as an archive of what's been played that we can search. Thus the hashtagging!
While this won't be fully live, you can listen to the shows in their mixcloud afterwards, so you don't have to miss anything!

If you've been paying attention, you know that I live-tweeted my spouse's radio shows for *years*, but now that we're moving off of twitter, it's time for a new home and a new paradigm. So I'm going to start semi-live-batch-posting [gotta workshop that name] the songs featured on the show here!
I will use this hashtag (and #ChildsPlayRadio for the Sunday kids' show), so if you need to mute, or follow, go ahead!
