On 24 February, Russian forces invaded Ukraine. The death toll is mounting. Families have been torn apart as some seek refuge in other countries, while others stay to fight for their country's freedom.
Disabled people are experiencing particularly difficult times.
The situation has made many of us feel helpless and heartsick. But there are things we can do, ways we can help.
Hello again! Sara Hillis here to tell you about this week's episode of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show! Since much of North America is springing forward this weekend into Daylight Saving Time, I thought we'd play some songs about time and some songs about spring this week. It may be snowy and windy outside my window today, but I know that some more springlike temperatures are in the offing for the week ahead. So, even though it isn't officially spring yet, I've decided to celebrate it anyway.

It's the time of year again, well, one of them, where the times of your favourite Mushroom FM shows may change. We had to pick a time zone, so when we founded Mushroom FM in 2010, we picked North American Eastern time. Daylight saving begins there this weekend.

It was 10 years ago, on 4 March 2012, that a Mushroom FM listener named Bonnie Lannom co-hosted the Mosen Explosion I was doing live from Boston, where I was visiting for work. We often wonder how different our lives would have been if she had been doing something else that day, or I had decided to do the show solo. Few couples of fortunate enough to have such a detailed recording of their first proper conversation, but we still have that show, and listen to it occasionally.
This week on Deep Dive we enjoy the wonderful songwriting and vocal talents of Suzanne Vega. We hear the sad story of Luka, meet Marlene on the wall and enjoy calypso.
Tune in at 4 PM Eastern Monday, which is 8 AM Tuesday in Eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 10 PM in eastern Australia. Simply tell your smart speaker to play mushroom FM and you will be there.
Mushroom FM, home of the fun guys, we’re on deep dive we focus on one artist for one hour.
