I got the opportunity to do a last-minute fill-in for the free-form show on WHUS called "Fiat Flux." The show is known for bringing unusual productions to the airwaves, many times including live music and/or interviews.
For this show, the "live" production consisted mostly of three shows that Hank Williams did for radio in 1951 sponsored by the Mother's Best Mills, a flour and feed maker. The Complete Mother's Best Recordings have been released by Bear Family in a huge boxed set that comes in the shape of an old table top radio.
If you happened to catch this broadcast, I hope you found it enjoyable.
