This week flew by (I want some days back)! Please scroll down and make sure you catch all the posts you missed, esp. my holiday shopping guide. Not sure how I will possibly accomplish everything on my list, but I do know that planning my weekly radio show is a top priority.

EVERYONE can tune in each and every Saturday morning to WIST Radio – AM 690 for my New Orleans and Gulf Coast friends – 9:00-10:00 AM central time and listen live! The call in numbers are 1-800-888-WIST or (504)260-0690

My first half hour, Christin Lougarakis will be join me in studio (Happy Birthday Christin – she turns 40 today). She was born in Milwaukee but lived in New Orleans most her adult life. Katrina changed that for her and she has been trying to get out of Milwaukee ever since. She is hosting a party at Lucky’s in New Orleans, Saturday the 6th for her Fark, NOLA & Twitter friends! @IM_x1 on Twitter and X1’shere on Fark for her 411. She is sure to be an interesting guest!

My second half hour I will have Oscar C. Donahue III joining me in studio. Oscar is a recognizable artist and New Orleans icon, who can be easily spotted in the French Market and is often referred to as “the pin guy.” His father had recently sat beside him until his passing. See the second line (a must for anyone who wants to know more about New Orleans traditions) that passed through the French Market in honor of his father here. There is so much you don’t know about Oscar as he is one interesting individual! He will be an amazing guest!!!
