Hello! Sara Hillis here to announce another blast from the Come by the Hills past! This time, it's the Remembrance Day episode originally aired on Sunday, November 8, 2020. This means that you'll have some outdated promos and such, but I was listening to it earlier in the week and thought: why re-invent the wheel? I found it a really good episode, and I hope you will too, even if it is an encore presentation.

Mushroom FM keeps North American Eastern time, where clocks are falling back on Sunday morning. If your clocks are also falling back this weekend, there will be no change for you in terms of when Mushroom FM and Mushroom Escape programmes are on.

If you are in the UK and Europe where clocks fell back last weekend, the time change this weekend will restore the usual time difference.

In Australia, New Zealand and other countries that have put their clocks forward, it means that Mushroom FM and Mushroom Escape programmes will start yet another hour later.

After you've enjoyed Come By The Hills with Sara Hillis, tomorrow afternoon from 02:00 to 05:00, don't touch that dial, device, PC, Mac or smart speaker and join me in The Early Years where and when you'll hear the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.
