About Me
At the Topless Burrito Bar we like to talk about the issues but keep it funky. We want to shower people with fashionable suggestions, witty quips, mind blowing ideas, and of course great (pardon my French) great f#@$ing music. Also we're big fans of blood drives... because it's just a needle and it's something you can do to help save lives. Listen Saturdays 3 to 4pm Eastern.
