My curiosity having been piqued by this thread, I listed the subject
show twice before it vaporized. I listened to it twice because I was
working on other things at the same time and thought I must have
missed the obviously illegal bit the first time through. Even after
the second listen, I'm still not sure what it was. That there was
something I have no doubt, I'm just not sure whether the fact that I
couldn't pick it out is a negative reflection of me or of the law.
