Two special shows are in the works:

1. Avoid the crazy-crowded shopping mall and tune in on December 24th for the semi-annual cover show. Two hours of the best covers of the year (and a few from the past).

2. The annual Best of Show is coming Dec 31st. All my favourite songs from the last year. Be sure to tune in!
