We catch up on some council funnies, talk about how the only way to handle this incoming council is as a long ongoing bit. Like the Moe Bergman pipes moment from the last council… it’s all ROFL from here on out, baby. Like so…
This Westerling guy is all right.
We revisit our winners and losers of 2024 to see how the proverbial tables have turned, we again turn to Ray Mariano for three stooges style physical comedy: trotting around with pie on his face going ‘it’s not pie’ over and over and over.
Our winners and losers of 2024. Our predictions were a…mixed bag!
83% of “assaults” at WPS were committed by elementary schoolers
Ray Mariano- WPS “manipulated the numbers” by uhhhh…reporting them.
Then we talk music!
Please buy an outdoor cat shirt if you enjoy this program!!
Oooo ahhhhh you’d look great in it! And just $20? In a post-Brandon world?
We did 50 episodes! Look at us. Would you just look at us. Couldn’t have done it without you fine folks out there listening. Think about someone else who might like the show and give it a share will ya? Word of mouth is really the only way this newsletter gets around and it’s done us perfectly well so far.
Also we couldn’t do this if I (Bill) was working another job because hooo boy it actually takes a lot of back-end work to get these episodes out, on top of all the other writing and editing that goes into this outlet in general. Subscriptions or tips would be appreciated!
