Today on The AIR, rather than bringing you a new episode of Radio Free Charleston, we are bringing you a special encore of two episodes of Radio Free Charleston Volume Four.

To listen to The AIR, you simply have to point your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay here, and  listen to the cool embedded player found elsewhere on this page.  

You can hear Radio Free Charleston Tuesdays at 10 AM and 10 PM, with boatloads of replays throughout the week.

Because your humble blogger was out of town on Monday, when he usually records the show, the decision was made to slot a rerun into this week’s timeslot.

To make it special, and because they were still floating around on The AIR’s server, we are bringing you the first episode of RFC Volume 4, from 2016, and the last episode of RFC Volume 4, from 2019. This was back when the show was all-local. The first episode was two hours, while we had shrunk it to one hour by the time we got to the end of the run.

Of course,  five weeks after the final edition of Volume 4, we relaunched RFC as Volume 5, expanded it to three hours, and combined it with RFC International. 

What you’ll hear today, from January, 2016 is
