Managed to catch the end of this with Stagger Lee(??), a Star Wars death star quote, and an ad for Medicare coverage that covered cigarettes. Sign off included a protonmail email address and a promotion for their Thanksgiving and Christmas shows.

Ballad of the green berets followed by the National Anthem, JFK

Not very strong, Maybe an S3 to S5, but solid copy. SIO 343

 JRC NRD-515 and a PixelLoop Pro-1B antenna.

Nice show!
