Playlist and Podcast for December 16, 2009

As winter closes in, and the wind punches you in the face with a blast colder than the snow queen's frosty tits, it's nice to know you at least have some good music in your not-too-distant future. That last sentence kind of got away from me, but this week's podcast can be downloaded for a limited time right here, or you can listen online by clicking on the player at the right-hand side of the page! The playlist follows, along with a list of some promising live music happening in town over the next week. Go see some live music--it's not *that* cold out yet!
<3, Susan.
