Finalized (finally!) my first radio show episode

So, I finally finished the first episode of my radio show.  We re-recorded it this morning and also recorded the second episode.  Instead of it being an interview style, it is going to be me doing it essentially solo with the segment host Thibault introducing me.  The recording went well, and I am deeply grateful for his aid in proof-reading and helping me to edit the text.  Afterword, we added in the songs for the first segment and wrapped it up.  The half-hour episodes will air during his program's timeslot when he goes on vacation this summer, which airs during the 9:00 AM hour.  So I feel useful to actually be performing a service to the station.  I have also chosen the songs for the third segment on the next generation of Irish music (showing off the Pogues, Flogging Molly, the Dropkick Murpheys, Thin Lizzy, Young Dubliners, and U2) and am finalizing the last segment on Irish inspired music, mostly dealing with artists inspired by Irish folk (Bob Dylan) or composers who use Irish elements (Howard Shore's "Concerning Hobbits", How to Train Your Dragon's John Powell, "My Heart Will Go On," etc.). 

I have a copy of the first episode and I can send it to you by request, although it is entirely in French.
