Wednesday always a busy day. Andres Clemente in the second hour this morning with the movie review. A couple of films on his radar today “Congelado en Rusia” and “I feel pretty.”


In the last hour we have H.E. Pedro Pessoa e Costa the Portuguese Ambassador to Panama to talk about Fado. We had a wonderful performance last year by Maritza and this year we have Katia Guerreiro at the Ateneo Theatre on the 12th June. We also touch on the Eurovision Song Contest hosted by Portugal this year.
