YARRRRRRR!!! THIS IS CAPTAIN STATIC SPEAKING!!!

TOWPATH RADIO IS MINE NOW — 98.7 FM, THE STREAMS, THE WIRES, THE FACEBOOK PAGE... ALL OF IT!!!

I’ve cut the brakes, thrown the logs overboard, and I’m playing whatever the voices in my radio-fried skull tell me to play! Country? Maybe. Polka? Probably. A cassette I found under my seat in 1994? ABSOLUTELY.

NO MORE TELETYPE. NO MORE “SCHEDULES.”
JUST CHAOS AND STATIC... 'TIL THE CLOCK STRIKES NOON TOMORROW.

That’s when the so-called Towpath crew says they’ll try to take the station back.
HA! LET ‘EM TRY! I’LL BE HERE WITH A BANJO IN ONE HAND AND A FROZEN BEAN BURRITO IN THE OTHER!!!

UNTIL THEN—IT’S ALL MINE.
CAPTAIN STATIC OUT.

LISTEN. IF YOU DARE.
