Sendepause

Waiting for the new show of FOWL Radio? Well, that's very flattering!

Unfortunately, Simran had to take a week's sick leave during which he promised not to use his computer. Since FOWL Radio is not a monologue station and nobody volunteered to substitute for him, so we'll just take a break until he returns. Why don't you join me in wishing him to get well soon?!!
