Yes, it’s “the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day” and, since it’s a Friday and the weekend, we just might find a little time to play.

It’s been too long since we talked with Chicago’s incendiary blues queen, Joanna Connor. She’s one of the headliners at this year’s Chicago Blues Fest, has a terrific new album, a signature guitar and a whole lot more to talk about, so we will.

June 1st marked the start of hurricane season and, since the predictions are for an above normal year, we’ll get an idea of what to expect as we check in with a man we frequently turn to while we’re at our Florida vacation home, Ross Whitley, Chief Meteorologist for WMBB in Panama City FL.
