1: The Full Circle Returns as a Podcast!

The Full Circle is back as a podcast! It's a show where songs are linked together: The first song has a link to the second song and so on, and the last song has a link to the first song, hence completing the Full Circle! There is also general chat and features in between the linking of the songs.It first started as a university radio show in 2010, and then as a Facebook Live video show in 2016, with the last show being in 2020. It is hosted by DC.As the show is now a podcast, songs cannot be played for copyright reasons. Instead, a playlist is created of the songs forming the Full Circle! Here's the playlist for this episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6LFb6ZoflLfjrDLPLzvj42?si=B_xj0EKARSioaLQJy7g4ZgI'll eventually make playlists of the songs on other streaming platforms in due course.This episode also features: a brief introduction for new and returning listeners (including my job - something I have never revealed in the past on the airwaves!), some "Would You Rather?" questions, and the legendary feature of "Abid's Words of Wisdom" - where Abid Mushtaq, a dentist, and great friend, provides some words of wisdom for the Full Circle nation. He can also sort out your teeth (wisdom or otherwise) if needed too; words of wisdom can be included if asked free of charge.Hope you enjoy the show in its podcast form and feel free to comment or ask for the patented (not actually patented) "Boom-Boom-Boom" shoutouts!
