Aww, this makes me sad. I'm from Tulsa originally.

Goddamnit. I’ve never been more disappointed they’re doing this in Chicago. New York City next time please. 😩

Hey, Eli! Get the guys totally blitzed they agree to record it and those who can't afford the airfare and motel cost to Chicago, can hear this most pressing theory. I'm sure we could scrape together, let's say $30-$50 for a patron only episode.

I had to listen to the whole damn April Fools episode and now the real thing is 1000 miles away?! SHENANIGANS!

There had better be Vegan Communion Wafers as part of a nice cheese and cracker plate for this.

Dammit, why can't you do a live show closer to Alberta!

Pretty please with sugar on top: If Eli actually does Jon Benet Ramsey on Platinum Night, please record it! Why else have we all supported you all these years?

A lot of small towns to the south of Tulsa were originally refugee camps from the race riot. OOOOOklahoma! Where the fire comes sweeping through your town.

Decided to listen to this again after the new Watchmen series brought it to the public eye.

I went to a Catholic prep school in the 1970s. We had a really good American history textbook, but it didn't cover these riots. Father Freiberg, our teacher, told us the story. I've met very few people over the years who heard of these riots. That same day's lesson included the Bisbee Riot of 1919, and the New London Riots of 1919, in which African-American soldiers returning from WWI were attacked by white veterans. Thanks, Father Freiberg. You were a bit of an odd duck, but you were a great teacher. (If you mouthed off in class -- and I had become a notorious jokester -- he'd turn his ring around and smack you on the top of the head with it. Not really hard, just enough to get your attention. I got whacked twice over 4 semesters, and I gotta say, I was asking for it each time.)
