Our third week of WUSB's Spring Radiothon. Thanks to listeners who pledged their support. we hope others will do likewise over the next few weeks. On today's program, Darryl Purpose, a Colorado-based singer/songwriter, joined us in the studio.

We were pleased to be able to return to the air after a two week absence. On 2-03-13, we were prempted for the Reggae Marathon and on 2-10-13, we were unable to get to the station after the blizzard of the previous day. We started today's program early (at 8:45 AM) since the programmer before us was absent, hence the "prelude" indicated in the playlist.
