HAPPY JULY FOURTH WEEKEND!

Tonight we revisit a great interview with rock/reggae band, Railaway. Boy what great music from this young group of talented musicians.

We then featured some great comedy from the comedic mind of John Bell as we present two of his episodes of Bells in the Batfry. One of the episodes is a tastefully done parody of the hit television series, 24. Keep in mind that all material from Bells in the Batfry are copyrighted by John Bell and used with his explicit permission.

Then it was Boat Safety again as we discussed some tips and tricks in keeping the great hobby of recreational boating safe as we speak with Dundalk Power Squadron officers, John hall and Brooks Riley.

We spoke to Andrea DiMartino, the Event Media Director for the Gettysburg Anniversary Committee regarding the upcoming 146th anniversary of the Civil War battle. We spoke about preparations, event details and how you can get tickets to see on or all of the days' events. For more information, see the links below.

Mat Stein returned to the program to take some more dives into his handbook, When Technology Fails. Again, this is a practical and down to earth text that everyone must have. Mat's visits to the show serve as the perfect companion to the subject matter on the pages of the book. For more information on how to obtain your own copy of the book, see below for the link.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAYTEE!

On the big show, we talked about some current news issues that should be upsetting the public such as the city council in Bozeman, Arizona requiring applicants for city employees to give up their user names and passwords for all their social networks and emails for background checks; sounds like invasion of privacy to us. Did the UAW union kill the big three automakers? Most likely yes. They hammered for bigger pay hikes and better insurance and now the companies cannot stay in business without all of us bailing them out and for what?

Later, we interviewed John Bell and Cindy Taylor from the Bells in the Batfry Podcast and with them, came many of the characters from the program. We found out how John came up with this fantastic show, who are all these characters and why it is so tough to get Miss Shmacklehiemer to stop talking so much. It is very worth your while to slide over there and listen to every single episode and yearn for more.
