Actually...they ALREADY paid up....that's kind of the root of the problem!!!

It's ok corporate man, I've told you time and time again that I'm a faithful KEXP listener. It's hard for you to understand, I know, but some people really love what KEXP and Lisa are doing, myself included. Just donated to the pledge drive last week.

You can say what you want. But to radio people, your fascination is borderline creepy.

Or, you could be Lisa yourself.

Personally, I don't care. But either of those scenarios come over to be very sad.

People ARE obsessive about KEXP. It's the best radio station out there! People like me are starting KEXP Posses all over the country and overseas. I know you don't understand it because your listeners don't really like you, but I am proud to be a kexp geek. Always will be.
 
> People ARE obsessive about KEXP.

People are obsessive over cottage cheese too.

But seriously, that's fine. But don't kid yourself over KEXP's "popularity." By trying to get the audio over many different sources and places, that's being scrappy -- no question. But they have to do that in order to survive. Again, don't kid yourself, if they were truly ALL "about the music," they'd shut down their pledge drives.

Like OMGLOLWTFROTFLMAO!!1!!1!

If they were the "best radio station out there," don't you think they'd have more listeners in Seattle than being 27th?

It must be nice being a tool.

Whether you are a "geek" or actually someone who works at KEXP is debatable.

Tell me, which of my listeners have you talked to? What did they say? Please tell me.
