Being solid Gen-X'ers, growing up on WKRP in Cincinnati, MTV & News Radio [ok, maybe we were 'all growns up' for the last one], and at least one of us having a solid 25 year career in TV & Radio broadcasting...we have a deep appreciation of the radio-genre. Which brings GA into contact with "Jay-Jay" [Petlak] & "Fitzy" [Kozyra] from 101.7 "The JAMZ", Chicago's #1-rated [fictionally] radio station. The critically acclaimed 4-part 'teaser' series debuted on Netflix in 2016 has us looking forward to a full season soon! Plus Jim shares with us the 'magic of audio' by hitting an imaginary 350 yard tee shot while playing golf during the interview [he spiked the shot on the tee-box]. Plus, old friend Karac Hendriks stops by to talk the magic of "The Tangerine" [bank], the Tragically Hip, and his new single "Can't Help Loving You...Greg?" just in time for this year's CCMA Awards in London, ON.
