West Michigan Therapy Dogs? I gotta look that one up. Anyway, the station
here is WTMD.ORG (for Towson MD), coming from Towson University (my alma
mater many years ago when it was still Towson State College). They do play
a good mix of new music, both local and more well-known bands with the
occasional way-out sound. I started listening to it carpooling to work with
my 23-year-old son.
