Galaxy Girl - 20210429 - My Kinda Dance Party - 97.3 wrir

Breakfast Blend w/ Galaxy Girl & Friends presents:

Happy Thursday everybody!

I decided to throw my own little dance party this morning. WRIR has met our fund drive goal, so I’m celebrating by shaking my booty. You can shake yours along with me. This morning I’ll have music from Pakistan, Brazil, Spain, France, Israel, Japan, and right here in Richmond, among other places.

Thanks to everyone who donated to our Spring Fund Drive! (And if you wanted those snazzy premiums but hadn’t gotten around to donating yet, IT’S NOT TOO LATE! Just donate right here at WRIR.org.)
