Trivia
The first show of 2016 and first to use a new format, at least in the intro.
Instead of playing the intro and then talking, it goes from the intro to the first song before the talking.
The background music is also replaced by the theme from "L.A. Law".
The version of Track 4 in this episode is a special radio edit that I made especially for the show.
