And now my headache is compounded because Fablo is on the radio. Ugh.

No! I was hoping that by now Fablo would be locked up and the key thrown away.
Avatar 4:14pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Courtney told me that the station posted Fablo's bail—thousands of dollars!—out of listener contributions. Courtney says this reinforces his contention that WFMU is a criminal enterprise masquerading as a non-profit.

Fablo just impugned Courtney as a drunkard and a womanizer and some bad things too, I think.

Which Island orchestra did the backing music for that ad? I recall it from a calypso collection, was it Lionel Belasco and His Orchestra on "Calypso Breakaway"?
