Episode #154: Restless

We're now fully immersed in the "resignedly inevitable" phase of Star Time's specially-designed global crisis programming, which means something different every week. This week it means something along the lines of "Forget it, just throw together some party platters." So this show is an agreeable mix of '60s R&B pounders and shakers, presented in very tight chronological order, because by God we need some order in our lives right now. Stay the eff home and enjoy.
