I’m here with Movado Kitania and we’re talking about a play that will be in the local community theater for for three days before closing production and why this might be the most important cultural touchstone of the century.

PHC loving sucked rear end even before it was revealed he was a sex pest. But that made me feel vindicated for hating it.

Tavis Smiley and Jian Ghomeshi also got fired in the past few years for stuff that was ignored for a bit too long. But yeah Garrison Kieller was kinda funny because they tried to give him every chance to quietly retire with a small mea culpa, but he insisted on raging about it and making it a huge story, so they fully scorched his show.

I have two incredible skills:

1) I conduct some of the best interviews you have ever heard. Honestly guests end up blowing off things they have scheduled after my interviews so the interviews can last longer. No bullshit I'm that good.

2) Really treading that line between rape and rough sex. Like so close to the line I'm basically sexually assaulting it maybe raping it idk

PHC was who I had in mind, and Ghomeshi was the CBC guy from Q
the best part of that joke is like everyone gets to respond "Wait, are you talking about PHC, or these other 3 guys who aren't on my local stations anymore?"

I don't recall the On Point story. They were talking about Keillor from PHC. The CBC guy was Jian Ghomeshi from the show Q, who is long since fired.

Public radio, like most media organizations right now, has serious problems with sexual harassment, a stagnant administrative culture, and a lack of advancement. They're going to be in real trouble in 20 years when they realize that every editor, supervisor, and recognizable voice at NPR is now 80+ years old.
