Greetings, Wrecking Crew,

I hope this newsletter finds you well.

I have something very personal to admit to you. Please treat it with the sensitivity it deserves.

Okay, here goes.

I don’t really like fortune cookies.

It’s a strange thing to accept, because I really do like cookies. A lot! “C” is for “cookie,” and that’s good enough for me.

But fortune cookies are pretty terrible. And they’re usually stale.

What I do love about fortune cookies, though, are the fortunes. It’s a nice little message from, I dunno, probably someone working in a cookie factory in Queens.

I save the good ones and tape them to my fridge, or the pen jars on my desk. I mail them to friends.

Do you take them seriously? Sometimes I do. Even the ones that aren’t actually fortunes.

Then there’s this one:

If you’re reading this on Monday morning, well, of course that fortune has come true! My show is on the radio and you can listen. Now your day has hugely improved over yesterday, when you weren’t listening to my radio show!

Tune in to Wreck Your Own Adventure, my radio program which airs on WFMU’s Give the Drummer Radio every Monday from 9am-noon (ET).

Here’s the link that’ll take you right to it, whether you’re listening live or on the archives: https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/165349

See you on the radio!
