Month: April 2016

Twice a month, long time Friday host Kevin Phillips, is on leave until July. We wish he and his co-host Marvelous Maggie, smooth sailing and well wishes in their time away! Kevin has been most recently doing shows on the 1, 3, 5th Friday … And Isis Sarran-Pagan has been artfully acting as the 2nd & 4th Friday Host since last fall. Isis has graciously volunteered to step in as temporary host every Friday! If you’ve met her, you’ll love to hear more of her; if you haven’t met her yet, this is a great time on Friday nights!

This arrangement will begin in May. You guessed it. That means tonight was open as the last Friday of April! Regular weekly Wednesday night host, Kim Justus, will be sitting in the first chair.

As an opener, we have the pleasure of hearing an incredible story from Dale Hayes, founder of the band Garfan. If you don’t believe in miracles, this is one you won’t want to miss! From a tragic situation after his wife’s brain injury, there’s a poerful message of hope! Hear about what’s going on with Deb, as well as good news about Garfan’s new release – Hot off the press! For their music, see www.Garfan.com and Like on facebook.com/garfanband
