Doing an early morning radio show during the holidays is a double edged sword.  Is anyone actually listening on a Monday morning when you deservedly should be sleeping in?  On the plus side, we got to go for breakfast afterwards instead of rushing off to work, so this was officially our breakfast show.  We only played one breakfast-themed song, but we sure talked about bacon and eggs more than usual while the songs were playing.  This wasn't a best of 2010 list - we'll leave that to the people at Pitchfork and Exclaim.  However, we managed to fit in a lot of stuff released in the last year because we liked it, and we hope you do too.  See you in 2011!

Today's show was aided by the fact that we were both fully awake.  The first of November brought with it sunshine and lots of good tunes.  We're both pretty excited about Maximum Balloon's debut album (spearheaded by guitarist Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio) and the new supergroup Fistful of Mercy featuring Joseph Arthur, Dhani Harrison, and Ben Harper.  Be sure to check out a great night of music in Saskatoon on November 20, starting with Dan Mangan at the Broadway, and concluding with Small Sins at Amigos.  Happy November!
