Bob and Ray

I wanted to be an announcer.

I wanted to be Bob and Ray.

I wanted to be Red Barber.

I wanted to do baseball.

It is the definition of the crooked com-- uh, politician and crooked person.

And Bob and Ray and their imaginary mayor of Skunkhaven had nothing on Donald Trump.

Garrett M. Graff writes in his newsletter, Doomsday Scenario, to which you should also subscribe, "Earlier this year, MS Now reported that the Bureau," the FBI, "appeared to be adding fugitives that the FBI had already located or were close to locating to the Top Ten Most Wanted." But the Top Ten Most Wanted exists to help them find the fugitives.

Oh, that's the old Top Ten, Keith, you moron.

Who gets hurt by that? Trump gets hurt by that.

How does Trump get hurt by Nixon being cleared of Watergate, by having something, I don't know, restored to him in 40 years after his death? Because Donald Trump's only competition for the most corrupt, most anti-democracy president of all time is Richard Nixon, and just, and clearing Richard Nixon would simply clinch that title without any question and no other candidate in the field for Trump for all time.

Because Donald Trump has, in fact, brought another Bob and Ray gag to reality.

He is so crooked, he has corrupted everything from the federal treasury to the Visiting Nurse Association.

The name We Interrupt This Program comes from the, I would say, mostly from the play itself, which is about a local radio station in Illinois covering the arrival of a, of, of an alien ship and actually two alien ships not to give too much away, but it's a very silly play, um, about the people, uh, the reporter and the people trying to cover this, uh, um, this, you know, history making event, uh, for, for humanity.

Um, and it's very much inspired by like the work of Bob and Ray, uh, where it's one crazy character after another.

Not really imparting any information, but sort of giving us a window on their ridiculous lives.

And then we'll eventually we do meet the aliens again.

born in a displaced person's refugee camp at the end of World War II, and somehow she ended up on the highest court in Canada.

What made our conversation quite distinctive was that we were joined by previous Simons Medal winner, former Ontario Premier Bob Ray, who just finished up his five-year term as Canada's ambassador to the United Nations.

Abella and Ray are great friends and moved seamlessly between telling funny stories while sharing their profound concern at what's happened to Canada's best ally, the United States.
