Justin’s away for a few days…but we continue the show!

Congrats to the Oakwood Lounge, Pewamo-a place with GREAT Taste!

Tell the Oakwood you "read this on the radio!" I'm pretty picky about my burgers...and my Chili.  The Oakwood Lounge answers my needs in Eastern Ionia County with the BEST burgers since the Lamplight in Ionia!  We congratulate them on 1 year of being reopened...with GREAT service, a friendly environment, great food, and your favorite summer beverages, too!  Congratulations from WION! -Carlyle
