Itty Bitty Kitty Corner Meow Mix

Picture
Itty Bitty Kitty Corner Meow Mix offers a zesty, crunchy mashup of pop music, soundbites and social commentary from host Kerry Trueman. Each episode explores a given topic through songs, snippets and tidbits tied together by Trueman’s compulsively alliterative analysis. Meow Mix is formulated to satisfy your craving for content that's thoughtful and tuneful: sometimes risky, sometimes frisky; never batty, rarely catty.

Trueman is a writer / artist / environmental advocate and compulsive composter who finds purpose in repurposing.
​Produced by Kerry Trueman and Matty Rosenberg @ Radio Free Rhinecliff
