      mid eighties checking in.

      Fun fact, the WKRP Cincinnati first annual turkey drop is an homage to a real event in Cincinnati, where they tried to release 2 million balloons.

      The resulting chaos killed two people.

      In some ways I feel sorry for them and in other ways I’m envious. Envious because of the mind blowing amount of content, but mostly feeling sorry for them missing out on huge, cultural, shared experiences.

      We used to, basically, be on the same page. Now anyone can read from any page they like. BTW, got any unpasteurized milk?

        I was fortunate enough to inherit the entire series, taped from VHS from my dad, which I promptly converted to digital for my jellyfin server. All the original music from the disc jockeys, none of that “we lost our license and have to put bullshit replacement music in the DVD release” nonsense. Hell it’s a radio station, the music made the show.
