 Cleft Club Radio - Nov. 23, 2005 - Short show to say hello and more shows will be coming | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Download/Listen here! Hello everyone. This episode is really short, it's just a shout out to say that yes I'm still here :). Had some life complications but I think things have settled down enough where I can get back into the swing of things. On this episode, I hint towards an interview I did and hope to put on a future episode. I also do a short interview with Kristi, and I mention me possibly doing a personal podcast where I would be talking about my other intertersts and where I'll be doing future interviews with my daughter. Next one will be a full, regular show :)
