Listen to Lynn Raridon from the Bill Hicks Foundation for Wildlife interviewed by host Brian Fitzgerald for a recent edition of Inside Austin. They talked about how an encounter with a racoon at a young age had an impact on the future comedian and how a charity that helps animals seemed like an obvious way to honor him. Lynn and Brian also talked about the upcoming Fur Will Fly Fest happening at the Cherrywood Coffee house on Friday, March 14th beginning at 1pm.
