On our 105th episode we focus on taxicabs. With a partial strike underway, we talk with a few actual cab drivers to find out what it’s really like behind the wheel.

In the second hour we turn our attention to music. Our 3@3 panel consists of RedEye‘s Ernest Wilkins and Fake Shore Drive‘s Andrew Barber- they weigh in with Steve Edwards on the top stories of the day.

For our final segment, the founder and president of Pitchfork join us to play songs from some of the new acts at this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival.

Throw in an analysis of the Jerry Sandusky report just released by Penn State and a conversation about bond court reform and you’ve got episode 105 of Afternoon Shift.
