    <title>The Organizer Podcast</title>

    <description>
      <![CDATA[Ten songs per podcast with one common factor between them.  There might be a thematic similarity in the lyrics, or maybe a unifying musical trend.  Musician and host Matt Wixson delivers (regularly, if all goes as planned) a batch of songs and bands who somehow fit into the expanding ska genre, lumped together as possibly never before.  <br>Hence, the Organizer.<br><br>

Suggestions will always be welcome!  Email me with a theme you'd like turned into a mix, and hopefully I can oblige!  Keep in mind I can't work miracles, so if you expect a show of Easter-related ska songs, it probably isn't happening.  I'd like to attempt longshots within reason, though!]]>
