EPISODE 24, kinda

Folks,

While we strive to provide you with high-quality drivel here at ASR, there are moments where our synapses forget to fire. Whilst we rid ourselves of some mental gremlins and gear up for an exciting, fresh episode twenty-five, we present what we've dubbed our "Emergency Episode". This was done awhile ago, and consists mainly of Tyler trying to sound cool in the absence of a co-host, but hopefully it will keep at bay those of you desperate for your dose of weekly radio podcast. Cheers.

Fame Becomes Her

Folks, long-time listeners know that we tend to post new episodes and not much else. However, I'm going to make an exception here. Alissa's presentation must have gone well, because she got mentioned in The Hamilton Spectator!
I think that deserves a post all on its own. Congrats Alissa!

Just a few more days...

For those of you who haven't listened to last week's episode, we've been toying with the idea of changing when new episodes get posted. This week, we'll put out Episode Nineteen on Sunday. Hope you can hold on until then!

EPISODE FOURTEEN

Remember, folks, we want to hear from you! What do you think about S&R? Are there other businesses downtown that you'd hate to see close?
