This is what has been happening on the weekly Free Form Freakout show for the past few months, including a pair of holiday-themed and year-end recap shows. Please note that the playlist for episode #787 was lost to time, which has happened on other occasions over the past 17 years too. If you’re ever interested in listening to these shows and can’t catch them at the 2:00 p.m. time slot on Thursdays, they are archived and streamable on the Free Form Freakout page over on the KMSU website for two weeks after they are aired.
