Hanging out on air at The Current until 7PM. I’d love to spread positivity and hear about something awesome in your world in 2025! I become a Grandmother, spent some great time with my family and friends, my continued health, developing a new hobby and that new Turnstile record!

On Wednesdays we wear pink. But the day after a concert we don the cool t-shirt we bought the night before. And since it's my last #RadioFreeCurrent I'll get to wear this gem while I play song requests! Together, we can build a perfect Saturday night playlist! What song would you like to hear?

You guys!! This is a recent discovery that has brought me joy. I have enjoyed it as an apple dip, a cookie topper and on toast without disappointment!

This photo was taken 19 years ago today when I woke up an Ohio resident and drove 13 hours to my new home in Minnesota. My pal Jill drove the UHaul with one of our cars and I followed behind with my family. In celebration, I would like to play a song request for you on Radio Free Current!

Had to change some things up after Bosley redecorated my bathroom. I turned to one of my favorite songs to avoid yelling at him. Is there a song that mellows you out? If so, I want to play it on #RadioFreeCurrent

I am leaving this video up since it has been popular over the years. But now I have created a new version that is all Sam, his band and the go-go dancers. No...
