March 23 Playlist: International Women’s Month

Monday nights are always a blast on MPR, thanks to our dedicated listeners who interact with us via our chat room. Among them is Magyc, who requested me to fill the vacant spot in our schedule on her birthday. Even the gremlins (perhaps with an assist from old man winter?) joined the party. The link begins after our intro and opening song and includes an almost four-minute long dose of dead air that begins during Apollo 440. But once the sound comes back during Baha Men, it’s interruption free listening so tune in! Our “magycal” playlist:
