THIS WEEK'S SHOW

May 4 is World Laughter Day, and we marked the occasion with global songs to make you laugh, or dance, or sing along. All in the interests of mirth and the joy it brings. Plus some Latin sounds for Cinco de Mayo, and other global grooves.

Congratulations to Jenny of Olympia for winning the Salsa Celtica CD we had up for grabs on today's show.

Past Spin The Globe shows
are available for a limited time
