"480 Minutes" - So This Is The New Year...

...and I don't feel any different.  Or so sang Death Cab For Cutie back in 2003.

Hello and welcome to the first 480 Minutes show of 2012.  The show is back and bigger than ever thanks to our two new distribution channels, SomaFM (super awesome sounding) and LoudCaster (almost indestructible, great for mobile or when on slow wi-fi).  For those still using the Live365 stream, please note that in the coming weeks our  relationship with Live365 will end and that stream will go away.

This week we will debuting new music by Guided By Voices (Dayton, OH), Nada Surf (New York), Run Dan Run (Charleston, SC),  and Zoos Of Berlin (Detroit, MI), and as always the show is hosted live and in-person from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Pacific Time.  Please get in touch during those hours with your requests, comments, and low-carb recipes:
