PLAYLIST FOR “FLATTERY WILL GET YOU…” (10.3.20)

4 Oct

It was that time again, time to ask people to put their money where my mouth is. Otherwise known as Fall Pledge Week. Remembering that you catch more flies with honey, I knew immediately the last thing I wanted to do was attract flies. So instead, I tried songs of full-throated, unfettered flattery to encourage people to go to wmnr.org and click on the trusty “Donate Now” button and support Turntable For One.
