Hope you'll join us! Live from 9-11am Amsterdam time and repeated from 5-7 pm. And if you can't make it then, I'll share the link....

Well hello old friends! Drew here. (Okay, okay, yes it's Jess, but Drew is right here, too...)

Guess what? While there are still no more pub quiz Mondays*, as of this week there are Radio Tuesdays! With a music round. (Sort of!) As a trial this week, we'll have a name-that-tune-question, maybe two, and ask you to answer here. The first replies win.
More on this later and on air. But for now remember: TUESDAY IS DREW'S DAY!

Please tune in live from 9-11 am Amsterdam time on Tuesday, or for a live repeat from 5-7pm every Tuesday evening (11am - 1pm US EST, 4-6 pm UK). And watch this space for contests and promotions. When we figure out how (not this week!) we'll include some call-in pub quizzing as well!
