Good News, Tecumseh! Thurgood Demeter Fowlerton the III, our local larva of the mothra variety, is currently starting a new life as the lead deforesting agent in Iron County in the Upper Peninsula. This is Vox and you’re listening to Not Really Radio

Local legend Chester Chase reached out to some contacts he has in Deforestation Co, the top competitor of Shamco Inc and a top logging company in the U.P.. Chase introduced them to our rapidly growing Mothra worm, which terrified locals have begun affectionately referring to as Thurgie, Thurgalicious, eeek a giant worm, is it glowing? It’s totally glowing, oh no it just ate uncle Howard, quick run away. Witnesses say representatives from Shamco showed up around lunchtime in Tecumseh, watched Thurgie clear out an acre and a half of trees in a half hour and immediately put him on a truck headed for the Upper Peninsula late yesterday afternoon.

If you missed your chance to see Thurgie around town, don’t fret. One intrepid listener sent us a photo of him which we’ve posted on the Not Really Radio Facebook page and twitter feed and our instagram. We don’t have an instagram. Oh, our secret instagram. I guess if you know you know. Our thoughts go with Thurgie as he embarks on his exciting new career as an expert in deforestation.

In other news, the purpose of this Not Really Radio pre-show is to entertain and enlighten you, Tecumseh, with all sorts of made up information and not real news reports in preparation for our live event on April 30 at 7pm. And you can help! Wherever you hear this podcast, whether on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter or the main webpage, share it with your friends and family and encourage them to come enjoy an evening of laughter and live music at the low low price of free!

One of the entertainers we’ll be enjoying at our live event is Nona Bennett who will be singing and acting both. I was able to catch up with Nona by phone and she agreed to do a short interview. Here it is.
