Heads up folks, it looks like Spotify has an ICE ad in their mix right now. So to make sure that didn’t run ahead of our show *again* we went into our settings and marked that we would not like anything political or from the government ran!

One of our listeners just let us know that Spotify ran an ICE ad ahead of our episode with the public library.

Now we get to have the fun task of figuring out how to let spotify know that we absolutely do not support ICE and do not appreciate them running that ad ahead of our show.

Yeah that comic was great, but I’m just not sure that it was created by someone who listens to Pitbull, and that’s kind of a dealbreaker for me!

This is what @cmxcollective.bsky.social mentioned in the last episode about the Silver Age JLA: Gardner Fox was a polymath using both scientific knowledge and history trivia to make stories more interesting. I see this trait in works of other storytellers from Carl Barks to Ishiro Honda and love it
