Dear Friends, 


 This week I bring you the thrift store of popcasts. The kind of popcast that feels a little abandoned, a little out of place, that doesn't really match the rest of the set. The kind of popcast that isn't too unlike a box of christmas ornaments that includes a couple of shiny balls, a pipecleaner candy cane, 3 plastic birds with missing eyes, 6 rusty hooks, 1 crocheted bell and a "Baby's First Christmas, 1983" heart ornament with a dirty tiny red bow eagerly hot-glued on top. And its ok. Its ok because what brings all these songs together is the fact that they need a home; a home in your heart. Because they know they have a job to do. And that job is to bring you a little cheer (maybe even a little tear) and to say, in only the way that pop songs know how: "hey friend. I'm here. I missed you. Sit back, relax and hand me that mic." And with that, I hope you enjoy this musty mix and make sure you wash your hands before you eat.

My dear liseybear, you’re welcome. And I forgot to mention that this popcast especially goes out to gypsies and hot lady motoryclists.

I am (fashionably?) late to the party on this one, but BRAVO, D-Mar! This is a delightful hodgepodge. Hey, is that a pic of the thrift store in Woodland? I miss that place.
