Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the PB Podcast. On today’s show we have both ends burning as we go all over the place.

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the PB Podcast. It looks like we’re getting ready for winter – some snow a couple of weeks ago and temperatures that did not get to 40 F yesterday (4 C). I still love New England, though. On today’s show we start with lies – Your Lies,…

“We got our own way of talking” on today’s PB Podcast. Don’t want to give away the ending (Spoiler alert) but we’ve got some great tunes on this week’s podcast. “If it’s square we ain’t there” begins with a set of Bob Dylan covers, then we head to the 1960’s with The Left Bake and…
