Hello one and hello all! Sara Hillis here to tell you what's happening this week on Mushroom FM's premier Folk and Celtic music show, known affectionately as Come by the Hills. We'll have a few Canada Day left-overs as well as a special birthday request, and a lot of great music for your enjoyment as usual. We'll also be celebrating the end of an era, because we're changing things up here in Sara-land. Yes, to save my Sundays and my sanity (what little there is to be saved of course,) Come by the Hills is moving!

Are you sitting comfortably? If not, then maybe you have ants in your pants or beans in your ears. Well, whether you’re comfortable or not, sitting or otherwise, it’s time for me to remind you that Small World, the Kids’ programme for the whole family, is coming up again on Mushroom Escape. There are two fun-filled hours and I can’t wait to bring it to you.

Affter you've enjoyed Mosen At Large for the final time on Mushroom FM, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 to 05:00, during which I hope all your questions get answered and all your opinions get heard, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac or smart speaker and join me in The Early Years where and when you'll enjoy the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.

From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 4pm Saturday in NZ, 2pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s
the described Movies Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix from 2007 And Jason and the Argonauts from 1963.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a 2007 fantasy film directed by David Yates and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.
It is based on J. K. Rowling's 2003 novel of the same name.

Kia ora Mosen at Largers.

This weekend’s show is the last that will be aired in the live format on Mushroom FM, Clubhouse, YouTube and Facebook. After this next show, Mosen At Large will be available only as a podcast and I will be vacating the Saturday Mushroom FM slot. I’ll explain the reason for the change and look to plenty more good times ahead. So if you’re not equipped already, be sure to head on over to http://mosen.org and learn about all the ways you can hear the podcast.

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.

This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the harmony and quirkyness of Canadian band the Irish Rovers.

We hear the story of the Irish Rover, enjoy Whisky on a Sunday, and lament the behaviour of Liverpool Lou.

Join me at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 6 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, 8 PM in Eastern Australia. Just ask your SmartSpeaker for Mushroom FM and off you'll go.

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that this weekend, for sure this time, you'll be treated to a blast from the past on Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show here on Mushroom FM. It's from July 5, 2020, and I think it's worth listening to again. Actually, this was an auspicious day in Mushroom history, as it marked the world premier of A Little Bit of This and A Little Bit of That with Gary G! I mean, how can we not relive the hours that led up to such a memorable Mushroom moment?
