I believe in laughter, tolerance, irreverence and blathering on incessantly. I host a morning radio program. Your mom thinks I'm cool. No seriously, ask her.
I got vaxxed, boosted, and have been following protocols for the last two years. Laying on the couch three days after my first positive test. I got bit.
Please, get vaxxed and wear your fucking mask. Do your part. Are you a real patriot or not?
Tomorrow morning I'll be joining my friends on
@PowerTripKFAN
for most of the morning. I genuinely love making radio with these guys. Please tune in and spread the word. Cheers!

Took me almost an hour to get home from Oake On The Water tonight, but I didn't mind. Listening to
@CaptainKFAN
and
@BobStPierre
on FAN Outdoors soothes my soul and always reminds me just how fantastic it is to be a Minnesotan.

MINNEAPOLIS: I’m visiting your town for the first time in October. I’ll be at
@TwinCitiesCon
October 2-3 and at
@magersandquinn
for a signing on October 1 to launch Greetings From Effin’ Birds in North America.
The M&Q event is limited attendance.
Fuck, I thought I hated syndicated sports content when they talked about sports. Listening to these tools talk about medicine, infrastructure and pandemic is utterly stultifying. Ugh.
@KFAN1003
, you need someone local who knows content and good guests. Just saying.
Just had a 'kindness of strangers' moment in a parking lot. Out of the blue, someone I've never met just said a few decent, thoughtful words and it's got me reeling in my vehicle.
Do something good today, that has no immediate reward. Surprise the world with your heart.
Today we announced a significant expansion of COVID-19 testing in Minnesota. As we see new highs in nearly all the metrics we use to track the virus, I encourage everyone to get a test. The new sites are free and open to anyone, whether or not you have symptoms or insurance.

@PowerTripKFAN
y'all should do some more music heavy type of shows now that there won't be a ton of sports new for the next couple of weeks! Would love to hear it! If Oake is allowed back after last time...
It's a trick.
Generates sympathy.
Distracts from SCOTUS nominee.
Gives him an out on future debates.
Gives him the opportunity to say 'that wasn't so bad', or credit some 'miracle vaccine' with a cure right before the election.
Makes any transition of power messier.
Diabolical.
I freaking hate this weather.
Stay near trees, hug the sides of buildings. Keep your eyes up for pterodactyls. This is when they feed.

George Conway telling us what we already know about Donald Trump doesn’t mean a damn thing to me. He’s married to a lying Trump loyalist in Kellyanne Conway. He gets no cool points. None.
Some days are totally like 'I've earned my spot'..while others are very much openly crying, jamming your face full of vending machine Cheetos and wondering what you ever did to deserve so much credit and open kindness.
Not unlike Grief, Humility is also a wise master.
Most people who question the legitimacy of the vaccine do not question the legitimacy of a 2,000-year-old book claiming I had a son who rose from the dead.
Drifting off to the lyrics of
@nadasurf

'Maybe this weight was a gift/
Like I had to see what I could lift...'
Fuck.
Good night, all. Here's to rest, peace and some vague form of fulfillment. Maybe that's all there is.
Hey, friends. I'm going to be on
@KFAN1003
today from about 1:30-3 to play Progrum Password and then discuss the Get Back documentary.
I'm a card-carrying member of The Commonwealth.

Effective immediately, all concerts and events at First Avenue and associated venues will require either proof of a full series of COVID-19 vaccination, or proof of a negative Covid-19 test taken in the prior 72 hours.
More info:
Always give yourself one more day. Always. Please. There are adventures to be had and people to meet and places to see. There is Love. Today is not the only day. Darkness is not forever. It just isn’t. Go to bed. Sleep. Wake up tomorrow and try again. I Love You.

UPDATE: Minutes after Mary Lucia signed off, MPR President Duchesne Drew announced that Lucia's boss was gone. "Jim McGuinn is no longer with Minnesota Public Radio," said an email Drew sent to MPR staff. McGuinn was the Current's program director.
Thanks
@ChrisRstrib
for the nice article about my future as the solo host of
@TheCurrent
Morning Show. In a decade of hosting mornings, I’ve been part of the male/female dynamic. I made great memories with
@steveseel
and
@OakeShow
, but it’s time to be dancing on my own.
That's it. I'm out.
The
@Vikings
are, and always have been, a complete freaking time suck. I could have been playing
@back4blood
this whole time.
I blame myself. No more.
