Motherless children have a hard time when their mothers are gone. Just ask Steve Post, who claims to have been born an orphan. Well, almost everybody achieves that status with time. So, in our passion for niche programming, we are dedicating this show to those of us who lack mothers and are therefore largely locked out of the Mother’s Day celebration. No fancy dinners, no bouquets of roses, no Jean Nate. Just The NO SHOW, but first, The Broken News. The music will induce regression to an infantile state.
