Keep Hope Inside Podcast#8

Taking a quick break from my neverending second birthday guest blogging celebrations ('The Two Year Itch'), I decided to rustle up a quick podcast. Although I really hesitate to use the word podcast here. There is no speakyspeaky here. Which a lot of bloggers still consider as perfectly acceptable as a podcast but I think it's probably more accurately, a mixtape. But with the popularity of [Muxtape], this may be a turn for the better? It's meant to be about the music and not me, anyway.
