Episode #86: Bang!


We got some kinda episode for you today on your favorite drive-thru R&B oldies show. Today's highlights include: a simple yet tactical plan to dethrone the Prince of Darkness, a shotgun wedding where some guests are a mite too trigger-happy, a candy man, a psychotic reaction, soul vaccinations, breakfast items, broken-down automobiles, and the convening of the Dickie Goodman Appreciation Society. Take a number and one of our associates will be with you in a moment.
