MC should get a Pulitzer for her Weird Little Guys episode on Charlottesville/Unite the Right alone. Spectacular reporting. I look forward to checking out this interview!

"This doesn't hurt ICE" no of course it doesn't directly hurt ICE , what are you proposing JT?!? But keeping the shop open like it's a normal day sends a message that everything's fine which it 100% is not. Every station should be blasting the emergency broadcast signal all over the country rn.

Vinyl, CDs, digital stuff, check. No 8-tracks but I have or had some DATs, minidiscs, and because I am a massive dork, SACDs.
I saw some wax cylinders at an indoor flea market once and thought, "hmm... but could I play them in the car?"
Also I never owned 78s but I know what they are. 😉

CBS sold their news division's credibility for a buck-oh-five and nothing they produce should ever be taken seriously again.

I'd also note they already invalidated Section 3 that says that you can't hold federal office if you engaged in insurrection against the United States. These are not judges impartially applying the law. They are racist despots who despise American progress. (3/3)
