Bishop on Air

February 5, 2010

After a much needed, yet somewhat spoiled holiday last week down to Nashville (it snowed the entire weekend in Music City causing the town shutdown), Saturday Session is back live. Catch the show from 4 to 7p CST online at WMAY dot com.

Find out why Bishop won't watch the Super Bowl, and some suggestions as to what else you (and your loved ones) can do instead of watching men in tights chasing balls around a field for four hours. You can still watch the commercials to get inundated with corporate persuasion, without even turning on the game. Check out Hulu's Super Bowl Commercial channel, Ad Zone (currently, last years spots are up, but this year's should soon follow).
