Episode 64: Vibes for my Dad
Originally aired January 7th, 2020. This was another very special Lush Vibes Radio episode, as this one happened to fall on my dad's birthday! This episode is completely dedicated to him and all of the music he loves, past and present! It also served as a special musical walk down memory lane for the both of us that I know you all will enjoy!

Originally aired December 10th, 2019. We're at episode 60 already?! That's wild! After a very tough previous couple of days, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to come in and do the show, but I was able to pull off a solid set of music full of good vibes, some classic throwbacks, and a track that I (or anyone else for that matter) will ever be able to pronounce. I do hope you enjoy it!

Originally aired November 12th, 2019. Do you like R&B? Do you like technical difficulties? Then boy do I have a show for you! The internet crapped out in the studio (as well as the entire building, as we found out later), but I managed to pull a Hail Mary and was able to keep my show live after the first 20 minutes. I hope you enjoy the music as I count my blessings that I have a hotspot on my phone!

Originally aired October 22nd, 2019. Hard to believe it's been a year already!

Episode 51
Originally aired October 8th, 2019. After a most entertaining two hour block of soft rock vibes the previous week, I decided to go for something a little more laid back for this episode. No theme for this episode, just a solid episode of good grooves along with a throwback set that I may have sprinkled a little soft rock into for old times sake!

Episode 50: Soft Rock Vibes
Originally aired October 1st, 2019. We've hit a major milestone, and whereas I've normally done just a regular episode on the smaller milestone episodes, I figured I'd switch things up a little bit while also making good on something I promised I would do, so episode 50 was 100% soft rock! We kept it laid back with hits by Journey, Starship, Tears for Fears, Berlin, and of course, Phil Collins.

Episode 40: (Mostly) 90s Throwbacks
Originally aired July 23rd, 2019. To mark the milestone that was episode 40, the night was devoted to all the amazing R&B, Soul, and Dance jams from the 1990s (and a little bit of the 80s as well!) It was a show inspired by the mixtapes that my brother Rodney made back in the day, so it only made sense to have him on the show once more to revel and reminisce in all of the glorious throwback tracks from a decade many of us hold dear!
