FIRE RELIEF
As many of you know, both Don and John grew up in Southern California. In fact, Don was born in Los Angeles and lived there until he set off across America on his radio-and-TV career journey. Don's first job after graduating college was with a radio program syndication service whose headquarters was in a building along Pacific Coast Highway in Pacific Palisades - a building that has now burned to the ground.
So far, Don and John's California families report they are safe from the fire, as do many friends. News reports show that others are not as fortunate. If you'd like to help, the Musical Innertube recommends a donation to the American Red Cross, which has delivered relief across the fire-ravaged areas of Los Angeles. Please, if you can, click on the link below and send a donation their way, along with your prayers for those caught in the path of pretty unstoppable fires. Thanks.

WHY IS THIS PODCAST CALLED THE MUSICAL INNERTUBE?
Back in college, John and Don hosted a radio show. Once, they went on the air to introduce "a soothing musical interlude"...but they misspoke, and instead introduced "a soothing musical innertube," and the name stuck.
WHAT'S THE PODCAST ABOUT?
John and Don talk to interesting people about their interesting lives, hobbies and obsessions.
