Small Things Considered

About Small Things Considered

JR and Gary consider small things, or maybe big things that could be small. Or small things that could be big. Our goal is to ask more questions than answer them. to probe what our listeners requests, and what we find in the wild. It may be amusing, funny, sarcastic, maudlin or dire, or anywhere in-between. the one goal is to entertain. Join two long term friends exploring the world around them, and join in on the conversation. Nothing is too small to be included: Music, Arts, Politics, Religion, Society-at-large: they are all small things. Don't sweat the small stuff. Let us do it for you.
