This week two more of The Criminal-In-Chief's close associates were convicted of or pleaded guilty to federal crimes.

A lawsuit filed by the New York Attorney General against his "charitable foundation"is likely what lead to the oddly enthusiastic guilty plea of one of those close associates, his longtime "fixer." Those named in the suit include Despicable Jr., The First Lady-Daughter, and Beavis. He himself put his own children in serious legal jeopardy.

My earliest political memory is the front page of the New York Times blaring a giant headline, "NIXON RESIGNS." (That moment took much of the oomph out of, "You can be anything you want when you grow up -- you could be president!"). I was brought back to that memory on Wednesday when I saw a New York Times with the front page headline, "PLEADING GUILTY, COHEN IMPLICATES PRESIDENT."

What a time to be alive.

Today's BAGeL Radio debuts will include new music today from Death Cab For Cutie (Bellingham, WA, @dcfc), Ethers (Chicago, IL), Mitski (Brooklyn, NY, @mitskileaks), IDLES (Bristol, England, @idlesband),   Nothing (Philadelphia, PA, @bandofnothing), Spesh (Seattle, WA), and Ultra Major (Brooklyn, NY, @ultra_major).

The show is live-hosted from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. (probably more like 4 p.m. today) Eastern U.S. Time and is followed by 2 hours of uninterrupted music.  The show is then rebroadcast in it's entirety beginning at 7 p.m., then again on Saturday at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and one final time on Sunday at 1 a.m., followed by a rebroadcast of this week's  Fuzzy Road radio show at 11 a.m. and then a couple of old  480 Minutes episodes from this week in past years, so there will be hosted shows all weekend long.

Tune in!
