Or for a fun spin through the HUFF website go to www.huffsantacruz.org; go to “Bathrobespierre’s Broadsides”, then click on the Latest Shows link, to find an extensive listing of all shows from mid-October  2017 on. 

The show has been netcasting twice-weekly since then, and broadcasting from 1995 until a few years ago.   We’re still looking to return to the air for which we need (a) a studio (find us a spot for a REWARD of $300); (b) an antenna set-up spot; and (c) more volunteers to reanimate the FRSC Collective.
