No early birds here yet! What an exciting show we'll have this week. TWO NEW SPONSORS! Here at the Old Codger's Philco Cheap Cigar Boudoir, we're selling airtime like it's going out of style! Remember, if you want to advertise on the Old Codger show, contact me at my agency, the International House of Pancake. See you in a few days!

Hello, Euneeda. Thanks for being part of the Old Codger commercial support team! You and Gus are helping Courtney refute the notion that just because a show airs on WFMU, it can't be profitable!

If we could only get Fablo out of the way Courtney could do FOUR HOURS of fine music instead of just one.

Sorry, I just got here, a bit late. Courtney's Hupmobile threw a rod. I don't understand, but he managed to patch it up with something from the trunk. Let the program commence — as soon as Fablo vacates the premises!
