Last night we showed up to the station and access to the building was restricted because of the Pan Am games. it made me think of the opening song because you say hi to welcome the international athletes but the joke is on the domestic population because you have to pay for it and put up with the circus of the games. The field hockey pitch is restricted by high fences and circus like tents. Download last night's show here.

This show features the third installment of Notes from Behind the Iron Curtain with a focus on Croatia. Beri Sabolic, who grew up as a punk in Croatia, hosted this hour and a half feature beginning with Paraf. Beri's credentials include hosting a punk radio show in Croatia called "Ispod zemlje" which means "Under the Ground". Beri also did a zine and record label called "Ill in the Head" which goes without saying that Beri is also a big record collector.
