Can we talk about what happened with Matt Walsh and the lifetime ban on this week's best show? I missed it live.
. . . or is it because things like that can get the station in trouble that it doesn't need?

(Speaking of the verb "believe," the Olympic anthem on CTV includes the lyric "I believe in the power of you and I," and I cringe each time I hear it, which is about seventy million times a day.)

Also, if WFMU get's a FCC fine, it cuts directly in to the pledge fund (I would assume).
Thank you, Martin. I was very pleased that I didn't close with "bye-bye," as has been my norm. I regret, though, not mentioning Sven Kramer's disqualification from the 10,000-meter race in long-track speed skating.

I have purchased cookware at thrift stores before, and I'll probably do it again. Shit, I've even picked various housewares out of other people's garbage. I am unashamed!
