The Internet is a strange and not-always-wonderful thing. We here at Mushroom Escape have been blessed with rock-solid Internet access for over a decade. With that in mind, we recently, as many of you may know, changed the way we run Mushroom Escape so that it is not being completely run out of the station manager's living room using his personal Internet. It has been wonderful.
This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the talent of Australian band the Bee Gee's, although the claim to their heritage may be a little thin. We ask how deep is your love, here somejive talkin, and hear how I started a joke.
Join me at 4 PM Eastern Monday, 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia, or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, 8 PM in Eastern Australia. Just ask your SmartThing for Mushroom FM and you will be there.

This week on Deep Dive we meet the piano man, and enjoy the multiple talents of American singer-song-writer Billy Joel. We encourage Virginia, hear about a big shot, and learn that she's always a woman to me. Billy Joel is one of my favourite entertainers - yes we hear that one as well - so it's a party in the studio during the show.
Join me at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 8 PM in Eastern Australia. Just talk to your SmartThing - they are the best form of transport to Mushroom FM.
