Like Dustin, I had no idea that Sebastian Maniscalco is an actual comedian. I just thought he was some guy that knows Jerry Seinfeld and likes suits. Well, that all changed this week when we had to learn about SiriusXM royalties after the satellite network scrapped the Raw Comedy channel to make room for Sebastian Maniscalco's Comedy Radio. That move cost a lot of young and upcoming comics some much-needed income, and the entire industry basically came out and dragged him. As Dustin surmised, Maniscalco probably had nothing to do with this decision, and he's since come out to say as much. -- Even SiriusXM is openly taking the blame. -- More importantly, Maniscalco heard what everyone said and is now fully engaged to make things right.

Tracy reviewed three challenged books she rated 4 to 5 stars together: An Ember in The Ashes by Sabaa Tahir (intense themes); James by Percival Everett (slavery); and The Tea Dragon Society by K. O'Neill (author’s gender identity). The Tea Dragon Society was her favorite. “This middle grade graphic novel is exactly the book I needed at the time.” What book did you read at exactly the right time? (Cannonball Read 18)
