Hour 1
(Brand-new/current releases. So much good stuff out right now. I couldn't squeeze everything I wanted to play in! Loving the Morningwood track. So tribal and bitchy! Hunx and the Punx is going to give you a giggle. Gotta love naughty queer punk!)

Hour 3
(This is the first-play of my chat with Christina Aguilera. She's taking some pretty nasty knocks right now, and they're not all completely fair. "Bionic" is a bit scattered and overwhelming, but when you break it into chunks, it starts to make sense. Christina showed up for the interview cranky and sleepy. She'd just performed on "Good Morning America." It wasn't until I proved that I really knew her music and this album that she locked in and become engaged. I can't say that I blame her for having an attitude. My guess is that people don't generally pay attention to more than her singles. Whether you love or hate Christina, you have to agree that she pours a LOT into her albums. When you do that, it's reasonable to get ratty when people interview you without doing their research.)

Hour 4
(When I first interviewed the lads of Massive Attack, I was a greenhorn newbie at Billboard. They were sullen, snotty, and they had me for lunch. I walked into this new experience prepared for the worst, and I wound up having a brilliant time with them. Age softens folks, for sure! Plus, asking them if they wear diapers is a great ice-breaker!)
