Ruby Slippers for April Fool's Day 7-8 pm with Nikki from Everything and the Kitchen Sink

Hey everybody!

Hope you got through this morning without too much distress and mayhem. Pranks can be funny or...the tipping point of an already chaotic existence. Personally, I took the high road and instead of fooling around invited cohost Nikki (@EatKS) into the studio to update us on what's new in Podcastland and how leaving Canada has changed her musical perspective (or not. Tune in and find out)
Music was pulled from her monthly "No Pants Record Store Day" and covers a lot of different flavours. (https://www.patreon.com/Eatks)

Enjoy!
