Challenging times require creative solutions. WVBR has currently closed the doors in the face of the Coronavirus pandemic, but we're still broadcasting - and tonight we've got a pre-recorded show for you from 6-9pm. No requests and no trivia contests, but we've got good music and some cool stuff up our sleeves. C'mon by - and we'll see you when the smoke clears!
