Happy holidays from MFFI!

In honor of our upcoming 5-year anniversary, we've decided it's time to refresh our podcast logo and cover art. We haven't settled on a concept yet, so we're asking for some input; if you have ideas for what might be an eye catching and memorable logo, please reach out to us through email or Instagram or the Discord community.

Thanks again for listening and supporting the show in any way that you can. We couldn't be happier to ring in the new year--and celebrate five years of insomnia--with the Midnight Masses.

Hey Insomniacs, we have something very special for you today. We're bringing you an episode of one of our favorite podcasts!

AHC (Asshole Court) is a show in which three lifelong friends--Buddy, Mikey, and Randy--examine the life of a public figure who may or may not be a giant asshole. They assign a preliminary score based on what they already know of the person, and then they delve into the details of his or her life, and at the end they determine the celebrity's final score (rated from 1 to 11: Mr. Rogers to Hitler). Subjects have included Steven Seagal, Connor McGregor, Joe Rogan, Alex Jones, Kanye, Harvey Weinstein, Tom Cruise, Diddy, Andrew Tate, and even Dolly Parton (spoiler alert: not an asshole.)

Since you're presumably a fan of OUR show, we know you enjoy laughing and learning, so we're confident you're going to love AHC. We hope you'll give them a listen, and include asshole court in your regular podcast rotation. Thanks so much for being an insomniac, and we'll be back next week!
