If the Beatles had been writing today, Paul might have been inspired to write a song called “Baby, your car can drive you”. But perhaps it doesn’t have the same ring to it…

As blind people, we’ve all experienced the frustration of access to cost-effective transportation. How many times have you mumbled under your breath that if you could only just get in your car and go somewhere, your life would be so much better?

St. David's Day is coming up on March 1, so as I've done with other Celtic national cultural days, I'm going to do a mostly Welsh music episode of Come By The Hills this week. St. David was a monastic of the sixth century who founded a community at Glin Rhossyn (the valley of roses) in what is now Pembrokeshire in Wales, and he has been taken as the country's patron saint in a similar manner to how St. Patric (himself probably also a Welshman) was adopted in Ireland.

Or is that roll, or sway, or dance, or boogie, I’m never too sure....
One thing I do know, 11pm Eastern is almost here.
Saturday night is not yet over, and the Shed is about to open.
If you’re in the UK, and you want your night to continue then tune in at the top of the hour, that’s 4am.
Oh yeah, and New Zealand, it’s almost 5pm, so if you want to drown your sorrows after last night’s poor excuse of a cricket match, then also tune in.
And to everyone else, well, just, um, tune in at the top of the hour!

When you hear the dying strains of Van Halen's Happy Trails signalling the end of The Mosen Explosion for another week, don't touch your PC, your mobile device or your internet radio and join me in The Early Years on Mushroom FM.
Hello, I'm Steve Cutway inviting you to enjoy simply the best music from the 50s and 60s.
You can contact me any time by e-mail at steve@mushroomfm.com. Requests from the 50s and 60s are welcome but because I prepare and pre-record the show ahead of time , I'll play your requests on a future show.

Our official time on Mushroom FM is Eastern US time, so we always say that the Mosen Explosion airs at 2 PM Eastern on Sunday, because it does.

But that means that at this time of year, it’s 8 AM on a Monday in New Zealand. And even at other times of the year, it’s still Monday in New Zealand. Incredible!

“The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.

It's Friday! and it gets funny at 9 PM Eastern Time on Mushroom FM the home of the fun guys!
I'm hosting Funny Fridays tonight and I'm not Bruce. Who am I? Tune in and find out. (Of course, you could look at the Mushroom FM schedule but that wouldn't be sporting now would it?)

We’re keeping it clean on this week’s “A Cuppa at the Mosens” Thursday 9:00 – 11:00 p.m. EST on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. With the topic of last week’s show being so serious, we’ve decided to keep this week light, airy, and fresh, like sheets drying in the sun or furniture polished to a high lemony gloss.
