Or sometimes we have indie artists who've been around for a while but they're still releasing new music and and that's that's really what my show is about, is exposing people to new music. And I love talking to creative people. Yeah, you know, not just music. But you know, we've had actors and authors and comedians, but mostly musicians and uh, and I love talking to them about what drives them and exposing their music to a broader audience.
Speaker 2: And and you know, it's it's uh, I'm passionate about a lot of things. But that's probably close to the top of the list.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's great though. Saturday mornings right here in w m n H Live.
