The Name Game pt. 2

Way back in May of 2014, when our almighty leader Debbie D. asked me if I wanted to dj for Ichiban, the first few episodes of Crayons to Perfume! were posted as downloadable podcasts only found on this blog. One of the very first was a Name Game show, and today almost exactly 5 years later we've got the 2nd installment of the Name Game -  all new girls, all new names!  Find it right here: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/85984 tonight at 7pm Eastern (4 Pacific)
