  Speaker 1: Thanks thinks that must go on the radio.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Let's see things that must go. Well, we have got
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: a whole list of things here. People send these to us.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: There are things that are bugging them, things that must go.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Get them out of our lives. If you've got to complaint,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: If you've got a thing that must go, send it
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: to radio from Hell at x ninety six dot com.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Put must go on the subject line. If we read
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: it on the air, it might give you some relief,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: it might make you feel better. And sometimes we are
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: told these things magically disappear from people's lives when we
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: read them. So I hope this works. For this first one,
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: I'll start. My name is Benjamin. My thing that must
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: go is my cancer. Actually I'm probably having surgery right now,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: and we'll have to listen to this as a podcast.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: My real must go is the god awful anxiety dreams
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: that I've been having ever since I had my diagnosis.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Please help, Benjamin, Benjamin, Benjamin, I hope this helps. I
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: hope maybe the magic will occur. Good luck on your surgery.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Let's see this one, says Timbo here from Bellingham, Washington.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: My thing that must go are people who don't know
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: what they want to order when they get to the counter,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: despite having waited in line for over five minutes. I
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: was recently at my favorite donut shop, the Blueberry Fritters
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: are to die for, and there were several people in
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: front of me, including a dad and his young daughter.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Having waited in line for over five minutes. You would
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: have figured they knew what they wanted, but no, they
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: took another two minutes or so to order their six donuts.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: It's like the person who still writes checks and then
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: waits for the groceries and to be all wrung up
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: before they even start to take their check put a count.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: You don't see that very much anymore, but I saw
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: it recently, an older woman, and there she was all
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: rung up and she took her check book out. Now
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: what is it again? This one says, please do not
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: use my name or email. Hi. My last email was
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: too long and convoluted. Sorry, I'll be more concise today.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: In the inspiring spirit of Bill's Relentless must goes about
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Hoda and Kathy Lee, which worked. I'm resubmitting this because
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the ORUM disorganization is rotten. Over the past few years,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: about forty percent of ORUM Library staff has left. Some
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: moved on to libraries that pay better, some have more respect.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Others retired or resigned or were fired. The exodus started
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: when the former library director abruptly retired many years too early.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: It's a tricky move. The mayor replaced the position with
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: a new director of leisure. Now the library is lumped
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: in with the recreation center under this bizarre umbrella. Yes,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: the library is now a leisure center. This bureaucratic nonsense
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: must go. The the Department of Libraries. Lackey, a micromanaging
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: knit wid rules like a mini dictator and surrounds herself
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: with unquestioning yes people. She must go. And finally, local
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: government and business is taking organizational cues from shiny soulis
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Trump must go. This approach is hurting institutions, services, and
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: real people. Thanks for letting me listen invent Kerry.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: First one from me. Things that must go is the restaurants.

• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Host or hostess.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and the podium never has a place for you
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: to be able to sign your check. When you do
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: the takeout, there's no place to oh yeah, put it
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: down to sign it and figure out the tip and everything.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: The podium is built so that you can't do that.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: How am I going to fill this out and tip you?
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: There is no place to rest my check.

• 4:21
  Speaker 4: for an hour.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: The absence of frosted flakes tent.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: On the second day of VIT alert, there was a

  Speaker 4: frosted flakes tent and on Friday when I was there,
