I look forward to Livewire every week. Its winning combination of interviews with author, comedian, and having a cool band on while opening with the best news is a winning combination. Luke and Elena are so Charming. I always giggling and retelling stories to my family that I heard on this shop. They are my pop culture go to. ❤️ Love is not too strong of a word to describe how I feel for this show.
