SPLATTO FESTIVAL
The companion blog to the radio program THE SPLATTO FESTIVAL, which aired on WBCR-LP 97-7 FM in Great Barrington from 2005 to 2012. The SPLATTO FESTIVAL is currently retired. We are hoping to find a home for X-Mas in Hell, so stay tuned, and believe in radio!

12.21.07 X-MAS FINI
Sweet Jesus I'm glad Christmas season is almost over. Ted and I rode it out with zeal, including an extended discussion about that insufferable pantload chump-ass punk Bill O'Reilly, who came up here last week to try to get ratings on GB's back, and whom I dare to appear on my show. What a pathetic little man. Actually my time's too valuable, my show's my sanctuary, I withdraw the dare.
Good things coming up in the next month. Watch and listen! Happy Holidays!
