❀ The Punxsutawney Phil Memorial Show 𑁍ࠬܓ

Every generation has a prophet. I think of the Greek tragedy of Cassandra, a woman cursed by Apollo to possess the power to prophesize events yet never to be believed. Cassandra walked the earth, ridiculed for her gift. We may believe that story of Cassandra has come to end, but there lives an individual who lives to carry on her tragic, prophetic tale: Punxsutawney Phil.

Phil has been cursed to roam the earth with prophetic visions of how the tempest will act. Despite his want to communicate these weather patterns to us, humanity disregards him and lashes out at him whenever he warns us of 6 more weeks of frost. This show is dedicated to this sacrifices he has made. Thank you Phil.

hello everyone! good morning :))
Rob from Maryland 6:45:32 AM
Good morning! This non-beach fossil is awake
Rob from Maryland 6:46:26 AM
aka I'm never as tired as when I'm waking up
DJ Aneek (host) 6:47:28 AM
nice to see you listening again!
Rob from Maryland 6:48:06 AM
oh yeah, bird watching went well ... we saw one individual rare gull on the Grappling With Gulls trip. Also some Bald Eagles, and over a hundred swans. The trip and the group were both fun
Rob from Maryland 6:49:20 AM
(and of course several hundred individuals of the common, expected gull species)
DJ Aneek (host) 6:50:39 AM
listen to any good music while birdwatching?
Rob from Maryland 6:53:24 AM
Not while ... but the person who we carpooled with said "Bring CDs" so I did, so in the car we listened to boygenius, Chappell Roan, and Beyonce's Cowboy Carter. Plus a scandinavian folk album from the 1990s
DJ Aneek (host) 6:53:51 AM
Oh my god, you must have loved how the Grammy's turned out then!
Rob from Maryland 6:54:37 AM
Really!!! This year I had TWO grammy winning albums. Last year it was only one (boygenius)
DJ Aneek (host) 6:55:34 AM
my friends and i were watching it live and we started screaming when Cowboy Carter won
Rob from Maryland 6:56:14 AM
Cool!! We were following it along at home via random Bluesky posts
DJ Aneek (host) 6:57:03 AM
the performances were top tier this year too
Rob from Maryland 6:57:35 AM
I love your Punksutawney Phil Memorial Show writeup
Rob from Maryland 6:58:09 AM

Rob from Maryland 6:58:27 AM
