Week 7 Newsletter: Till Death Do Us Part
According to multiple wedding-related websites, Saturday, October 19 is the most popular date for weddings in 2019. It’s fitting that the first wedding I’m in is coming on that exact date.

Week 6 Newsletter: The Points Don’t Matter
Something happened a week ago that was utterly amazing, but not in time for me to squeeze into the last newsletter. On a rare day where I was in the control room for our 7 a.m. show, we happened to have a couple guests promoting their comedy show. One was Asad Mecci, a quite funny…

Week 1 of the NFL season and of this year’s Epic League of Epic Epicness kicks off tonight with Bears-Packers, which I will probably be forced to sleep through because Satan made my schedule.

Week -1 Newsletter: The Legend of Preseason
Welcome back to football! Well… almost. Obviously, the season hasn’t started yet any won’t for a couple more weeks. However, because we had our draft a little bit earlier than normal, saving the draft recap for another three weeks wouldn’t be too timely.
