The Codger once whispered in my ear that if he can't take it with him, HE'S NOT GOING! (ok, he didn't whisper that last part)

I don't think the Codger has gone for at least two score years.

One of the best parts of the Codger shows are instead of Googling an artist only to find all the links go back to WFMU, nothing turns up at all. Somewhere there's a scroll or clay tablet that says what Nanja Raho is...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:40pm
Matt from Springfield:

I carved "Site:WFMU.org Nanja Roha" into clay, I'm waiting for the search results.
