  • One song possibly related to it, that will be partly played during the radio show.

We need both by the evening of Friday 21.
During that weekend you will receive privately someone else’s glossary entry. During Monday’s radio show you will have <4 minutes to read out loud/comment/give feedback/do whatever you want about it, thinking retrospectively about what we did together so far. Details to follow.
