The Fun Zone for 01/11/2026

Episode Notes This episode was a hard one to make. My show is about comedy music, but I am not feeling very funny right now. Minnesota has been under seige by ICE since January 6, 2026. On the day after they arrived, Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent. She was survived by her wife, Becca (who the media keeps trying to erase) and her 3 children. When this happened, all I could think of is how this could have happened to MY wife and I. We live in the same city, just a few blocks from where this happened. I REALLY didn't feel like I could play silly songs about farts and weed... not this week, NOT TODAY! Instead of cancelling the show, I decided to serve this community in a way that I really needed. It was nice to sit with everyone and listen to angry protest music, some slow and serious, some fast and funny, and some songs really stirred some emotion in me. I hope this episode is as healing for you as it was for me. This one is for you, Renee!
