Special Event
The opening Saturday of the show will feature the comedic presence of local geriatric dandy, and ham radio personality, Peanut Brittle with his trusty sidekick, Tommy Talker. Peanut's contribution to the ham radio world may be widely known among listeners to W-E-Z-Y, his apartment-based radio station, but this is your chance to brush shoulders with the man himself.
