Good night, Binger! I think I'm taking my laptop to bed. I don't think I will be up too much longer, either!

Well everyone, my eyes are starting to get heavy. I truly don't know who is around anymore anyway, so I am going to hit the sack. I am going to keep watching "Last Holiday" on TBS and when I fall asleep, I do.

Thank you all for such an enjoyable night. I can't wait to do this again tomorrow night. You all mean so much to me! Thank you all for letting me be a part of your family. Merry Christmas to you all! God Bless you all!

Okay I'm still awake and there is less than 1 hour until Santa takes off.

made582 · Dec 24, 2011

Santa has delayed his liftoff!!! The new sleigh is so fast that he's afraid that he will get to places before the kids are in bed.

XPN Night Before in Progress at post time!

Drake is back with an online listen link!

From the webpage:

The 18th Annual The Night Before on XPN

24 nonstop hours on the 24th day of December!

From midnight to midnight December 24, 2011

Robert Drake here – excited to once again host The Night Before on XPN!

It was 18 years ago when WXPN came to me, with those puppy-dog eyes, hoping that I'd fill in on December 24. Seems no one was available, and in those days before digital, you needed a body to oversee any programming. So, I agreed - as long as they gave me complete freedom to spin an aural web of sounds of the season - direct from my collection of holiday tunes. What they didn't know was that I had already developed a fascination for Christmas songs. Not the burnt cookies anyone can hear up and down the dial in December. My collection was chock-full of unique nuggets - some not given the light of day for decades.

So, they agreed to give me three hours and I delivered. The three hours went to four - which went to six and then to twelve, to celebrate twelve years of tradition! In 2007 management asked what I planned to do to top my 12-hour marathon the previous year. I said, how 'bout 24 hours?! After checking my pulse and temperature - just to be sure I wasn't babbling under some illness - they agreed. So, for the last four years, I've been on the air for 24-nonstop hours.
