My name's Ed Piskor. I do a comic called Hip Hop Family Tree, and you're listening to 11 o'clock comics.

Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Bo! Bo! Bo! Bo! Bo! Look at the month, yo.

And it's a doozy.

Yeah, it is a dozy, isn't it?

Yeah.

There's no... It's not really going to be a light and breezy episode.

right yeah and see that's the thing

before we get into it but I mean this wasn't we're not

I mean I don't want to come across like

we're attempted to jump on any bandwagon

we had our and we'll get into the whole book of the month process

but this was this was playing weeks ago

and we originally would have had

had Vince's schedule worked out we

probably would have talked about it last week so this is strange strange serendipity here because

like you said we we we've been doing the show for a long time decided to do this book

broke, a part of me thought, oh, that's interesting timing. But I must admit, I didn't think,

maybe naively so. I didn't think that the story would have the legs that it had because it's still

even as we're recording this still very much in the in the national zeitgeist it's it's it's

it's only grown and and and considering it is one school district in one state that's in an area that is incredibly conservative anyway.
