Wreck Your Own Adventure with Wendy del Formaggio

Believe it or not, this has nothing to do with Kraft Singles, those individually wrapped slices of cheese-like substance.

Every Monday at 4:30, listeners to The Wreck help Wendy decide whether to keep or toss one of the mystery 7" records in her collection; voting happens on the playlist comments. The "mystery" is that Wendy has no idea what this record is—or sometimes why she even owns it. On October 14, Wendy is judging the whole megillah, and she needs your help! Are these singles going already? Tune in and find out.
