@nielsonTSN1260 with his morning show / #NSDrafts, I especially liked the strip mall one - came on a wednesday morning when our new puppy just wouldn't sleep so I took him for a walk and listened to the whole thing. @lowetide never missed a day with his blog and...

hit it out of the park every day from 10:00 to noon on @TSN1260. Thanks to all the producers and others involved in Dusty's show, Lowetide's show and with @JasonGregor's show... #storytime with Gregor and @Jason_Strudwick has been equal parts hilarious / insightful / inspiring.

for keeping us all entertained in these strange, strange times. /end
