Did you all miss Courtney last week? The Good Doctor did a fine job filling in, but we belatedly discovered that he obtained his medical degree from a rogue, uncertified physician's academy and does not carry malpractice insurance. Any litigation threats and injury claims should be forwarded to Ken Freedman.

So there is a girl Fablio now?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:59pm
ultradamno:

By the way, as if the lead-in of Fablio isn't damaging enough, my sources are telling me the station has brought in murdered Arizona muckraking journalist (the murdered ones are notoriously the most dangerous at their job too) Don Bolles to go undercover in "Sheila Juggling Room" (I don't know what that is) to find dirt on Courtney using some glam-rock alias. So threatened is the station bigwigs by the prospect of a Courtney run WFMU. Sad.

I just claimed to myself that listening to WFMU is my hobby. There I said it. That, and collecting collectible baby doll advertising. It’s true.

Management of WFMU is demanding that Courtney return to broadcasting from Jersey City. They gave him a deadline to cease hosting the show from his poutin' shanty in East Orange.

Time was when Courtney would load up a stolen A&P shopping cart with 78s and push it along Route 280 from EO to JC just to host the program.
