A note: Our show is pre-recorded, so last week’s show did not include mention of the severe weather we got a week ago. On June 1st, our area experienced two tornadoes, including one that was on the ground for over an hour. It was classified as an EF-3. We will be donating a portion of our sales June 10th-June 15th to our local chapter of the Red Cross and Dakin Pioneer Valley Humane Society, which was very hard hit by the tornado. You can donate directly to these organizations.
