IOWA MUSIC SHOWCASE PODAST - Episode 40: Happy Hawkeye Holidays 2016, Part 3 of 3 - The Spiked Eggnog Edition



We are now at the last of this year's three holiday episodes.

In this episode we feature songs containing words and subject matter that would put you on Santa's naughty list!

So if you're not into hearing the f-bomb among other things, you would probably be happier listening to the first or second of this year's holiday shows.

If things like that don't bother you, then be prepared to hear some interesting and exciting Yuletide tales...

We also feature two songs, one by Billy Catone and one by Rachel Feldmann, done exclusively for this podcast!
