quote [ Joe Frank, who stretched the boundaries of radio storytelling with mind-bending, absurdist monologues often fueled by his neuroses and his dark view of the world, died on Monday in Beverly Hills, Calif. He was 79. ]
Joe Frank made some of the best radio I've heard. His delivery and creativity put him in a class of creators that I'm just glad enough other people like that he got to continue doing it.

quote [ $15 STARTING WAGE? FUCK THAT!
Labor unions have spent millions pushing a $15 minimum wage. Instead of reducing poverty, these wage mandates force businesses to raise prices. When cost-conscious customers reject higher prices, the result is fewer opportunities for inexperienced employees. ] Edgy advertising against people's self interests. Awesome!

quote [ So not only is the wizarding economy almost completely decoupled from the Muggle economy, no one here has ever heard of arbitrage. The larger Muggle economy had a fluctuating trading range of gold to silver, so every time the Muggle gold-to-silver ratio got more than 5% away from the weight of seventeen Sickles to one Galleon, either gold or silver should have drained from the wizarding economy until it became impossible to maintain the exchange rate. ]
A little late, but I just started listening to the podcast presentation of this recently.
