This week, we discuss the opening of the Scat Jazz Lounge, Brave Combo will be appearing in the McDavid Studio (most attractive MySpace page EVAR!) on December 21st for the Holiday Dance Party.

Bernie continues to be an advocate for making Fort Worth a more livable city, this time by appearing before the City Council to question a proposed pipeline across Trinity Park and to submit a great idea for protecting the park from future development.

Thanks for listening!
