Fat Robot Radio

Episode XXV: Grinding Them Out Until Prohibited From Doing So By Law

Posted by ben on April 17th, 2007

When future generations look back at Fat Robot Radio its work will likely be judged as a whole. The individual episodes will blend over time into a large tapestry and only the overall impression that they make will remain. Only the best episodes, the cream of the cream, will be revisited, heralded as examples of their seminal work. Is this one of those episodes? No. Not by a long shot. It is fun though, and totally worth listening to. Enjoy.

				Fat Robot Radio Returns
				Posted by ben on February 7th, 2007
			
				
				

				
				
					The checks have cleared, everybody’s rested, court ordered therapy sessions have been completed, cases of Steel Reserve have been shipped, opened, drained, and replenished again, Mr. Slayer’s bail has been posted, hundreds of dollars in audio equipment have been redeemed from the pawn shop, contract disputes have been settled, Waldo, at long last, has finally been found, egos have been stroked, I have, albeit briefly, emerged from hiding, Presidential Candidate Tony MF has received notification from the Federal Elections Commission that his appearance on the show will not violate federal election statutes, Brad has been given permission by his legal council to speak on the record, Smurfs have been smurfed, and now, despite seemingly insurmountable odds, congressional investigations, lawsuits, botulism, domestic strife, vomiting, and a series of misadventures wacky enough to be turned into a hilarious Saturday morning cartoon show, FAT ROBOT RADIO WILL RETURN!
Look for new episodes starting February 19th. Or Don’t. Whatever. It’s not like our self esteem rotates around whether or not we are popular in the eyes of the fickle masses.
Honest.
Please love me.
