Thanks for the tip; I'll check it out. I'm always looking for good holiday music, even if it will have to wait until next Christmas to inflict on people over the air waves.

If you click on the link: http://www.fcac.org/webcasting/webcast.htm at 5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday, then click on the earphones icon above the words: "Listen Now," you should be able to hear the show through your headphones or speakers attached to your computer without much trouble.

Alas, I don't have podcasts available because 1) I don't know how to produce one and 2) the afore-mentioned copyright fees put that out of my range at present.
