The end of Spring here at KUCI. The Summer Season of Programming begins tomorrow, roughly a week before Summer begins in the rest of the world, but that's just the way KUCI rolls when it comes to the vacation months. We'll be back at this same time during the summer, though, so stand by for that!

June! Which makes me think that Summer might be coming along here in a minute of two...

Not this week, though, so no need to start panicking yet.

Are involved in the regional championship series this weekend at UCLA, so they were playing baseball during the entirety of this week's episode. We'll see what happens next week!

Contributing during the broadcast, you can still visit the website and pitch in some dough to help the radio station out. Thanks!

Next week, though, there might be Anteater Baseball preempting the show if the Anteaters win some certain proportion of games earlier in the week. So we'll all find out together!
