What's this playing right now? It's terrific.
What's that song that was just played?
I'm loving this music tonight. I have to say that it certainly doesn't sound typically Scottish. Or even the least little bit. Are these all Scottish performers?
OK, I take it back. A wee bit Scottish after all.

I tried listing to the program this evening, but found it impossible. If I were interested in was is on your damn blog, I would read it. On the radio, why can't you talk a whole lot less about the blog and play more music?
