ORly Radio Show 100 - Jinkies! We made 100!

Welcome to ORly Radio Show 100 for Friday March 11th, 2016 - where we dismantle the current events for your edutainment through mostly rational conversations that make you go ‘Oh Really’! I’m your host Andy Cowen, with my usual suspects Michael Robinson, Stephen Griffith, Ren Cowen, and Fred Sims.
